An estimated 4.63 billion terabytes of data will be generated daily by 2025. To accommodate this staggering number, low-power magnetic media with higher data density and faster I/O speeds is crucial. 2D magnets are essential for next-gen magnetic random-access memories (MRAMs). 2D-MRAMs marrying ultracompactness to ultralow power consumption are key…

Colorectal cancer is one of the most frequent cancers globally. A large proportion of people have modifiable risk factors, such as weight and diet. Coffee is the main source of chlorogenic acid, the most abundant polyphenol in natural products. Hernán Villota argues that these polyphenolic compounds could have a preventive…

The project would significantly contribute to retrospective and prospective clinicopathology of cancer diagnosis and establishment of a novel field in medical science based on 3D histopathology.

A recent study shows that hearing is the last sense to go when we die. What is the last sound you wish to hear at the end of your life? Yoko Sen is an ambient electronic musician who spent time in hospitals as a patient, horrified by their noise –…

Professor John A. Rogers obtained undergraduate degrees in chemistry and in physics from the University of Texas, Austin, in 1989. From MIT, he received SM degrees in physics and in chemistry in 1992 and the PhD degree in physical chemistry in 1995. From 1995 to 1997, Rogers was a Junior…

Planckton is a scientific written and video blog. The goal is to simplify, popularize and explain various scientific topics that are hard to understand for your average person. We focus on more complex topics and new advances in science which are hardly covered by any popular media.   Tags: Citizen…

Period poverty and period stigma impact the life of entire communities. The health of women and the environment are compromised as current solutions foment bacteria growth and are not compostable. Rebecca Cenzato proposes selling affordable and compostable sanitary pads made out of banana fibre and produced in rural mini-factories, while…

Jasurbek Ibragimov is tackling eyestrain caused by prolonged phone and computer usage with an app designed to monitor eye health and blink frequency. The application not only tracks these metrics but also provides exercises to prevent eyestrain, offering a solution to alleviate the negative effects of digital device use on…

SprinD is a front-runner organization in Europe with a completely new approach to breakthrough innovation. I does not rely on peer-review-based identification and selcetion processes. Rather it aims at recruiting forward-looking innovation managers to select research and innovation projects which are both research-intensive and application-oriented. Rafael Laguna will be able…

Pauline Zarrouk’s project aims to develop innovative statistical, simulation-based and data-driven methods to extract more cosmological information in order to propose smoking gun tests of the nature of gravity.
