HOW A REACTIVE SYSTEMS APPROACH MAY LEAD TO FULL DYNAMIC MODELS OF MULTICELLULAR ORGANISMS One-day experiments on living beings will be, to a large extent, substi-tuted by interactive simulations on computers. A decade ago, computer scientist David Harel, winner of the Israel Prize, the ACM Software System Award, the Emet…

MathworldVR – immersive learning environment in virtual reality where students discover connections between the abstract world of mathematics and the virtual, simulated real-life world. Tags: Education.

Cutting-edge particle accelerator and quantum computational simulations to unveil each step of an enzyme reaction to guide an efficient design of new functions for sustainable industrial applications.

By developing high-performance non-classical light sources and multi-photon interference, Jian-Wei Pan and his colleague Chao-Yang Lu together with their team have implemented boson sampling with up to 76 photons out of a 100-mode interferometer, which yields a Hilbert state space dimension of 10^30 and a rate that is 10^14 faster…

As a species, we have a remarkable history of scaling up and distributing new technologies among the world’s population. For centuries, books and letters were precious and limited to a small elite, today the printed word is ubiquitous and production costs are negligible. The most recent democratisation of technology took…

Teamwork coordinated by Justyna Olko breaks down walls between academia and local communities, combining multidisciplinary, decolonising research with participatory activities that promote language revitalization and ethnic minority empowerment. These endeavours have shown that the use of local heritage languages improves health and well-being and protects against historical trauma, fostering ‘communities…

Challenge-Based Learning: The project inspires young people to step out of classroom and explore their purpose in the world. Wandering Challenge designs for 3 students to form a team, challenge themselves to complete 30 missions within 3 weeks. The challenge encourages them to step out of school, make the city…

This Round Table will mark the global launch of the report ‘Confidence in Research’ conducted by Economist Impact and supported by Elsevier. Digitalization has impacted not only the practice and dissemination of scientific knowledge, but also the credibility of how scientific information is judged. Putting scientific research at the forefront,…
