Computer scientists at ETH Zurich have developed a digital tool capable of searching through millions of published DNA ...

The lungs expand when we inhale and contract when we exhale. The tissue and the interface respond with resistance to this movement. The fluid on the surface of the lungs reduces this resistance, ...

All cells – from mammalian cells to microbes – can follow different biological paths. Whether they grow and divide, specialise, age or die depends on the pathway they take. The decision about which ...

Many chemists are currently researching how small carbon molecules, such as methane and methanol, can be used to generate larger molecules. The earth is naturally rich in methane, and artificial ...

Die Schweizerische Stiftung für den Doron-Preis hat Professorin Tanja Stadler, Leiterin der Gruppe Computational Evolution am ...

An international team of researchers combine orbital imagery with seismological data from NASA’s Mars InSight lander to derive a new impact rate for meteorite strikes on Mars. Seismology also offers a ...

Ecologists are increasingly using traces of genetic material left behind by living organisms left behind in the environment, called environmental DNA (eDNA), to catalogue and monitor biodiversity.

Researchers are developing a living material that actively extracts carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Photosynthetic cyanobacteria grow inside it, forming biomass and solid minerals and thus binding ...

Researchers from ETH Zurich are using a new method for digital timber construction in a real project for the first time. The load-bearing timber modules, which are prefabricated by robots, will be ...

Die Frankfurt Foundation Quality of Medicines (FFQM) und die Deutsche Pharmazeutische Gesellschaft (DPhG) haben Dr. Christian ...

3D printing can be used to build load-bearing concrete structures that require significantly less material and no steel reinforcement or mortar. ETH architects and engineers from the Block Research ...
