Tarek was awarded the second place for his research on artificial intelligence, titled “Breaking the Wall of Computational Creativity”. He works on the development of supercomputers that are capable of composing music like star composers. Besold believes that computers have the ability to imitate human creativity with the means of…

LabEscape is a non-profit outreach activity whose goal is to show that science can be accessible, relevant, beautiful and fun, via a unique science-based escape room experience. Agents must solve a series of jaw-dropping puzzles based on various physics phenomena – objects will literally disappear before their eyes! – though…

BIOLILOLAB is a lab focused on projects on prototyping and deprototyping biomaterials in the liquid, solid and gaseous states. In a short way, an autonomous lab guided by the experiment. BIOLILOLAB is a small independent lab with a fridge, incubators, spectrophotometer and the basic glassware necessary for biology experiments. BIOLILOLAB…

Professor Berk leads a multidisciplinary institute developing innovative psychiatric medications and therapies. Recognising biochemical evidence for reduced oxidative defenses in psychiatric disorders, Berk and others predicted treatment potential for oxidative modulators. His team led the first RCTs demonstrating that N-acetyl cysteine, an inexpensive, safe antioxidant supplement, improved depression and negative…

Clarice investigates the extent to which quantum effects influence biology. The hypothesis that quantum effects might provide an essential benefit to life is astonishing. “Living quantum sensors” appear to surpass tech devices, even if embedded in a noisy, hot and wet bio environment. Established quantum techniques can be used to…

A key challenge on the road towards a functional quantum computer is to integrate the individually demonstrated components into a functional and scalable device. I have pioneered the realization of fully chip-integrated quantum gates with trapped ions and have recently demonstrated a high-fidelity self-contained computation register that is both resource-efficient…

McDade developed and validated a method for quantifying SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies in finger stick dried blood spot samples. This approach allows people to self-collect samples from home, and then mail them to the lab for analysis. McDade’s scientific aim and public health goal is to expand understanding of predictors of…

What if we agree on ADDITIONAL search Reference Schemas to Index what we know and where, and how it connects? Across Scales and Scopes, Cultures, Languages, Sign-Systems? And embody and index thematic fields and issues. Proposed a Metaparadigm and a Conceptual Superstructure (9D) for enhancing conventional search methods and detecting…
