To use a system that can be very well controlled in the lab (cold atoms) to emulate the dynamics of another system (molecules) which are difficult to predict. Despite of being at the basis of our lives, most problems dealing with molecules are hard to solve even with supercomputers. In…

Bryan John Magoling is addressing the global issue of breast cancer, which poses a significant threat to women’s lives. His research involves using a genetic reporter called PalmGRET to label and track extracellular vesicles (EVs) in the body, revealing that EVs released by cancers promote tumor growth. By modifying the…

Learn about societal philosophy and other philosophical approaches to understand our current society: from living in a society of singularities to providing a new ethical and philosophical framework for the 21st century, from a cultural…

Public trust and involvement in science plays a central role in addressing global challenges, achieving the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, and contributing to the overall wellbeing of society. This Falling Walls Circle Round Table debates how we can use Co-Creative Approaches to foster Science Engagement initiatives that aim to…

To measure the magnetic moment of the muon to unprecedented precision in the search for new fundamental particles and forces that may contribute to the muon’s internal magnetism. By producing copious numbers of subatomic muon particles in a powerful accelerator, a precise measurement of the muon spin precession and the…

We currently run science and engineering engagements (workshops and school talks) in UK schools with the support of some of the best professional street-dancers in the UK. They are delivered in both primary and secondary schools. Our schools talks focus on careers in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), and…

Training Scientists for the Future – Is the PhD still up to date? – Falling Walls Circle Round Table 2023 The PhD is the foundation of the academic enterprise, the first piece of original work done by a researcher. With the significant changes seen within science and the expectations broader…

The rapid integration of AI into all aspects of society raises urgent questions and presents significant dangers. AI technologies have been introduced in a range of sectors, with claims that automating sensitive social decisions improves outcomes and increases efficiency. From facial recognition and predictive policing data to automated HR –…

With the metal-organic framework nanomaterial, we are developing the most sensitive gas sensor to be used for breath analysis for early diagnosis and prevention of certain types of diseases. Tags: Engineering, Materials Science, Nanotechnology.
