Andrea Fischer and colleagues present the first dating of glacier ice using less than 2 mL STP of argon from ∼5 kg of ice, finally opening the door for radioargon dating in glaciology. Alpine summit glaciers have a characteristic age range between 100 and 1,000 years. Reliable dating is the…

My project would like to realize evidence-based education to meet demands for improved education standards. My project collects so called ‘educational big data’ from LMS and digital textbooks. The collected data is immediately analyzed and used for effective feedback to both learners and teachers. The main concept is real-time education…

Paradigm is inspired by ideas of science and is a metaphor for potential; the potential to grow, take risks, and be bold and brave. These are all qualities which are necessary for scientific progress and reflect the ambition and intention of the Crick Institute. I chose weathered steel as the…

Research shows that computer games can be used as an effective educational tool and can promote prosocial behavior. I teamed up with French game designer Martin Jacob to create a free online computer game that encouraged social distancing, and increased understanding of exponential distributions, during the Covid-19 pandemic. The game…

Benjamin List: Breaking the Wall to Organocatalysis – Falling Walls Science Summit 2023 Traditional methods of chemical synthesis are laden with hazardous chemicals and heavy metal catalysts, the disposal of which has led to environmental pollution in both land and air, while producing copious amounts of chemical waste. These inefficient…
