Exploring the importance of helium recycling
Helium is a finite resource and is increasingly threatened by depletion. Its importance ranges from medical imaging to scientific research. As demand rises, the need for sustainable solutions becomes clear. Helium recycling shows a possible pathway and captures this precious gas from a variety of sources. However, the meaning of recycling goes beyond concern about […]
Diversifying proteins to ensure our future: the power of innovation
Dr. Adam M Adamek, Director of Innovation at EIT Food, explores the role that Agrifood Innovation can play in fostering protein diversification and transformation into a more equitable and more resilient food system. Our food system is at a critical time. Climate change, resource shortages and geopolitical shocks put unprecedented pressure on food security around […]
How hydrogen-driven excavation is formed reconstructs the geotechnical structure
Hydrogen-driven drilling promises sustainable alternatives that can enhance clean geological engineering construction practices over the long term. The construction industry has a significant portion of heavy machinery, many of which consume large amounts of fossil fuels. Innovative technologies such as hydrogen-driven drilling can reduce reliance on diesel and provide potential alternatives to transform sectors. However, […]
The UK Space Agency joins DSIT in the 2026 overhaul
The UK space agency is expected to undergo major transformation as it will become part of the Department of Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) by April 2026. The move is designed to reduce duplication, reduce bureaucracy, and enhance ministerial surveillance, ensuring public accountability is at the heart of the UK’s growth space programme. The new […]
Farms launching solutions
Fire departments across the United States use safer alternatives to traditional fire forms. Fire departments across the United States are switching to newer, safer alternatives to traditional firefighters of the past. Made in Georgia, Soyfoam™ has no PFA and is biodegradable. Forms containing PFA have been used for years in combating fires. These forms are […]
Ocean energy lowers electricity bills for Europeans
Ocean Energy Europe considers how ocean energy complements other renewable sources like the wind and the sun to create a more stable, cost-effective, emission-free power grid in Europe. Europe is targeting emission-free energy systems by 2050. This is an important and absolutely important step towards facing the global climate crisis. To achieve that goal, a […]
Innovate on the road
ISED’s national Horizon Europe Roadshow was established to inform and equip researchers of the tools they need to engage in international research partnerships and fundraising opportunities. In today’s interconnected world, collaboration between research and innovation is essential to tackling global challenges and promoting our collective knowledge. The partnership with Canada’s Horizon Europe program is a […]
The world’s first measuring research institute in space
Nigel Fox, an NPL Fellow at the National Physical Laboratory, discusses a climate-focused Truths Mission, including the results so far and the benefits offered for the future. Trackable radiometry supporting ground and helio research (truth) satellite missions, in collaboration with several European states led by the UK Space Agency (UKSA), is designed to improve climate […]
Diamond magnetic field sensor for translating cancer detection
Researchers at Warwick University have launched diamond-based magnetic field sensors that promise to revolutionize cancer detection and treatment. This compact, ultra-sensitive device is designed to track magnetic fluids injected into the body, allowing surgeons to identify tumors and track cancer spread more accurately. One of the biggest challenges in cancer diagnosis is identifying the tumor […]
SWRI systems protect spacecraft from collisions of orbital debris
Earth’s orbit is becoming more and more crowded. Not only satellites and spacecraft, but millions of fragments remain from past missions. This orbital debris can range from depleted satellites to small metal debris, each capable of damaging an active spacecraft that travels at ferocious speeds. Even fragments smaller than a grain of sand can puncture […]
