Luciano Rezzolla is the Chair of Theoretical Astrophysics at the Institute for Theoretical Physics in Frankfurt, Germany. His main research topics are astrophysical compact objects such as black holes and neutron stars, which he investigates by means of numerical simulations on supercomputers. Black holes are the most compact objects in…

Global warming and climate change increase the level of GHG (green house gases). Emad Alobiadoon’s solution is to use metal organic frameworks (MOFs). MOFs have the ability to capture and convert the emission into useful materials such as chemicals and less harmful gas.

Is there other life out there? Astonishing findings in recent years and cutting-edge research are bringing us ever closer to answering one of the most fundamental questions in science. The discovery of planets outside our solar system likely to have habitable conditions has thrilled astronomers hunting for a world resembling…

We used our more than 12 years of giving training in STEM subjects to 1000s of students in face to face setup and innovation labs around Egypt, and designed our online courses content to: keep the enrolled students engaged, give the sensation of hands-on experience using simulations, gamification and other…

Xiyue Zhang argues that we need to improve osseointegration in patients with osteoporotic fractures after implantation of fixation screws and reduce the risk of secondary fractures and screw loosening. Using a TiCu alloy can enhance the fixation stability and accelerate osteointegration, thus reducing the risk of aseptic loosening during the…

Artist Geraldine Cox works with physicists to find resonant new expression for the beautiful things we have discovered and inspires others to do the same: children construct mobiles celebrating atoms, dancers absorb and emit light, grown-ups cut intricate paper photons for a giant collage of sunlight, and in mesmerising paintings…

In this Falling Walls Breakthrough Conversation with Frank Niederländer, digital participants had the chance to discuss and ask questions. The interview series provided an intense personal atmosphere, in which high-level guests, speakers and panelists of the Falling Walls Science Summit 2021 focused on their individual research, career paths and experiences.…

How Philosophy Can Provide Frameworks for a Global Biotech Revolution Throughout history, when presented with new technologies, humans as a species have shown a recurring pattern: a tendency for reckless exploitation, often ignoring harmful side-effects and hazards, and only much later pausing to consider the need for ethical reflection and…

The nominating institution Karlsruhe Institute of Technology on the breakthrough: Puchta is a pioneer who demonstrates that CRISPR/Cas as a site-specific nuclease can be used for restructuring complete plant chromosomes. He elucidated major mechanisms of DNA double strand break repair, and he is one of the leading scientists adopting this…

My project harnessed the power contained in macromolecules; these proteins capture carbon dioxide and produce 10 million molecules of carbonates, fuels, and energy in as little as a second.
