In brief The power plants along the River Limmat can generate some 2 percent more electricity if Lake Zurich’s water level is managed in line with an adapted regulation – as ETH Zurich researchers ...

Die Schweizerische Stiftung für den Doron-Preis hat Professorin Tanja Stadler, Leiterin der Gruppe Computational Evolution am ...

Filippo Coletti, Professor für Experimentelle Fluiddynamik am Departement für Maschinenbau und Verfahrenstechnik (D-MAVT) der ...

ETH Zurich and EPF Lausanne (EPFL) are intensifying their collaboration in artificial intelligence (AI). They have founded the Swiss National AI Institute (SNAI) with the aim of addressing challenges ...

Researchers are developing a living material that actively extracts carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Photosynthetic cyanobacteria grow inside it, forming biomass and solid minerals and thus binding ...

Die Frankfurt Foundation Quality of Medicines (FFQM) und die Deutsche Pharmazeutische Gesellschaft (DPhG) haben Dr. Christian ...

A new type of ultra-flexible brain probe enables precise recording of individual brain-cell activity over extended periods of time. The electrodes resemble tentacles and consist of ultra-thin fibres ...

A team of physicists at ETH Zurich has created a tiny metalens that can half the wavelength of incident light. They have achieved this using a special metal-oxide lens material called lithium niobate ...

ETH researchers have developed a type of chocolate that is more sustainable and nutritious than conventional varieties. Cocoa-fruit chocolate uses cocoa fruit jelly as a replacement for powdered sugar ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed MenstruAI, a novel device that can recognise biomarkers directly in menstrual blood. The electronic-free sensor technology does not rely on a laboratory and ...

For many future applications of quantum technology, not only individual atoms but also much larger particles must be capable of being controlled quantum mechanically. ETH researchers have been able to ...

ETH researchers have developed an implantable fuel cell that generates electricity from excess glucose in the blood. This could be used to operate medical devices in the future. When combined with ...
