MIT may very well be involved in corn and AIDS cures.
They have all kinds of research going on there.
I toured the Whitehead Institute when I applied for a job there. The job involved hundreds of tanks of Zebra Danios. They have have large ( relatively speaking ) eggs and are very prolific. This makes them ideal for genetics research.
If they have hit upon something possibly helpful to a third world country, why not run with it?
They just haven't come up with anything useful in the corn department yet.
