How canSERV is strengthening cancer research in Europe
Helen Massy-Beresford talks about how canSERV is helping European cancer researchers and biotech companies accelerate discovery by connecting to shared data, samples and advanced research infrastructure across borders. Cooperation in cancer research in Europe is reaching new levels. Through the EU-backed canSERV platform, scientists will be able to more easily collaborate with specialized research services […]
Biometric passwordless login and EU digital wallet security platform
CardLab releases its biometric FIDO authentication solution, while preparing release of a biometrically secured platform for the EU Digital wallet, using offline biometric identity verification. For a long time, digitalisation has been all about driving efficiency and productivity, but with all sorts of Cyberattacks and ransomware showing no signs of slowing down, ignoring the cybersecurity […]
Ocean sensors will change how scientists track ocean carbon cycle
EU-funded researchers are developing a new generation of ocean sensors that can monitor previously hard-to-reach areas, and are expected to provide clearer insights into how marine ecosystems are responding to climate change. The world’s oceans support important marine ecosystems and provide more than just food and recreation. They help regulate Earth’s climate, absorbing vast amounts […]
Protecting innovative renewable technologies for a green EU
EUREC Executive Director Greg Arrowsmith highlights why innovative renewable technologies are key to delivering a more sustainable and secure energy system within Europe. This is a pivotal year for Europe’s climate goals and strategies. The upcoming review of EU governance rules provides a unique opportunity to strengthen the EU’s energy and climate governance, but it […]
EPI’s path to innovative high-performance computing
The European Processor Initiative is working to achieve digital sovereignty in high-performance computing by developing European-made processors. Almost a decade ago, the European Commission decided that a special Framework Partnership Agreement (FPA) was needed to address the idea of European-made processors. Even if it wasn’t manufactured in Europe, it was definitely designed and conceived in […]
Strengthening Europe’s pandemic preparedness
From everyday infections to new health threats, it’s essential to be prepared for what comes next. Pandemic preparedness is central to that effort. Dr. Renée Delde, newly appointed CEO of the Ecraid Medical Research Network, talks about how stronger European cooperation and support from the EU is creating a more agile and coordinated clinical research […]
UK and California deepen ties in clean energy field
Representatives from the United Kingdom and California signed a new agreement in London, building on decades of cooperation on climate and clean energy. A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed by UK Energy Secretary Ed Miliband and California Governor Gavin Newsom deepens decades of cooperation between the UK and California.

KRICT microfluidic device simplifies PFAS and contamination detection
A South Korean research team has unveiled a microfluidic device that could change the way scientists detect harmful contaminants in water and food samples. This technology eliminates the need for filtration and other labor-intensive preparation steps and allows contaminants to be extracted directly from samples containing solid particles such as sand or food residue. The […]
Investing in sustainable food innovation
The European Commission’s investment proposal aims to accelerate innovation in sustainable food production as part of a new strategy for European life sciences. The European Commission is working to transform food production across Europe using biotechnology, sustainability and capital investment. As part of the recently published European Life Sciences Strategy, the EU is targeting sustainable […]
Refurbishment automation at the heart of circular electronics
Challenges, opportunities, and Wisematic’s role in the future of smart device refurbishment. The rapid expansion of the global secondary market for consumer electronics has established refurbishment as a central component of the circular economy. In Europe, where sustainability, resource efficiency, and carbon reduction are high political priorities, the refurbishment of smartphones and other smart devices […]
