Blanca Costa Ávila addresses the problem of respiratory distress due to fibrosis and stenosis of the airways produced by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. She suggests that implanting a bronchial splint solves airway stenosis and improves pulmonary ventilation.

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…

Lorena Neira Ramírez developed a low-cost material to maximize the area coralline algae can grow upon. Facilitating a settlement substrate helps marine ecosystems capture carbon faster and more efficiently.

Over the last year, Patrick Cramer and his team visualized how the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 replicates its RNA genome. Their work revealed the mechanism of the drug remdesivir and enables the development of new antivirals. Cramer is a world leader in the fields of gene transcription and structural biology. Over the…

Ankita is working on nano-fiber filters that efficiently remove particles and enable good flow with the help of surface coating technology. These two functions are mutually exclusive in conventional filters.

The nominating institute innosabi GmbH on the breakthrough: Imagine a world where innovation is not an overwhelming task for one, but a mission for the entire organisation.

This Winners Session features the Top 10 breakthroughs in the Social Sciences and Humanities category. 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…

Based on an in-depth longitudinal case study of one inter-organizational relationship between two multinational companies, we present the counterintuitve idea that policical struggles within organizations can be a powerful driver of collaborative dynamics between organizations. We develop a process model, highlighting the need for a political perspective on inter-organizational relationships…
