EPFL is introducing three new Master's programs to widen the offer of the School's cross-disciplinary study programs in basic sciences and engineering: the Master's in Neuro-X, the Master's in Quantum Science and Engineering and the Master's in Statistics.

The University of Luxembourg, and more specifically the Department of Mathematics, will be at the Expo in Dubai from 22 February to 5 March 2022 with their project ReCreate.

Quantum computers are coming, and they will benefit society. But they also have a downside: their superior computing power can break today's protection of sensitive electronic information on conventional computers.

Interest rates are expected to remain at the historically low rate of 0.1 per cent for the February round despite rising inflation and expectations of a future rise in interest rates, according to the RBA Shadow Board at The Australian National University (ANU).

The causes of climate change can be demoed using a cheap home or school computer, thanks to a Python program developed by a team at the University of Bath.

No, there's not an increasing number of Australians freeloading off other taxpayers. A new ANU study explains why - with a little help from the cult film, The Princess Bride.

The Bernese theoretical astrophysicist Kevin Heng has achieved a rare feat: On paper, he has derived novel solutions to an old mathematical problem needed to calculate light reflections from planets and moons.

Sajid Javid's statement that no one will really know how many Covid cases there are over summer is more scientific than any epidemiological model, says Visiting Professor Paul Ormerod (UCL Computer Science).
