12-Jun-2025 Infinite Martian mudslides in a Dutch airplane Utrecht University When we send a rover to Mars, a Martian mudslide or landslide could bring a sudden end to years of hard work and investments. Scientists are therefore eager for more detailed knowledge about the nature of these landslides. But Martian gravity is much lower than Earth’s, and we don’t know how that affects mudslides on Mars. In a world-premiere experiment together with Delft University of Technology, earth scientist Dr Lonneke Roelofs is investigating how a Martian mudslide would behave under lower-gravity conditions.
12-Jun-2025 ‘I get to love you with two hearts now’: Chicago mom thriving after complex double-organ transplant University of Chicago Medical Center Laura Valentine had a heart that didn't work properly on the wrong side of her body, but a "metropolis" of experts came together to give her a new heart and liver. Less than a year later, she's already running 5K races and working on a doctoral degree.
12-Jun-2025 FERRO Project marks one year of advancing lake restoration solutions across Europe Pensoft Publishers Eutrophication, driven by excessive phosphorus and nitrogen inputs from diverse sources including agricultural runoff, wastewater discharge, urban stormwater, and atmospheric deposition, remains one of the most pressing threats to freshwater ecosystems. It leads to algal blooms, oxygen depletion, and biodiversity loss in lakes and reservoirs across Europe. Tackling this challenge is at the heart of the FERRO project (Fostering European Lakes Restoration by Nutrient Removal, Recovery and Reuse: Integrated Catchment and In-lake Scale Approach), which launched in June 2024.

11-Jun-2025 6G test center is an engine for innovation University of Oulu, Finland 6G research is moving from the theoretical to the practical as we speak. While there is no 6G standard as of yet, the need for experimental testing of new solutions and technologies that will define 6G is growing by the hour. To rise to the challenge, the University of Oulu has been all the while building a state-of-the-art hub for exactly this type of testing. The University of Oulu’s highly sophisticated 6G Test Centre is a collection of facilities for researchers and developers to create prototypes and test solutions in the current and coming wireless environment. The 6GTC’s membership in the NATO DIANA network reinforces innovation in dual-use technologies.
