Researchers from the Ecotox Centre, Eawag and the University of Applied Sciences Northwestern Switzerland have tested combined biological and chemical online monitoring as an early warning system at a municipal wastewater treatment plant. The system is able to detect peak loads of micropollutants in treated wastewater and identify toxic pollutants in real time.

A group of researchers from Università della Svizzera italiana brought together in the new REMEDI Lab - REthinking MEntal health through Clinical and Data Intelligence, within the Euler Institute, is

A major new study launching in Scotland aims to show how a simple genetic test could help doctors personalise treatments - boosting medication response and reducing harmful side effects.

How are digital technologies changing the way people perceive and process stories? A new research training group at the University of Würzburg will address this question.

How do we know exactly what is happening at a molecular level during extremely fast processes, such as burning during combustion? In less than the blink of an eye, one chemical compound and then another are present in a flame only to disperse and give way to more. Understanding which molecules are present gives scientists a way of understanding the inner workings of the chemical processes taking place.

PE, school sports and physical activity (PESSPA) are critical tools in fostering healthier, happier and more resilient children and young people, concluded a recent study from University of Manchester

Waterloo-led research challenges link between loneliness and mortality for older adults receiving home care Various reports have linked loneliness to premature death, with some - including the U.S. Surgeon General - suggesting that loneliness is as harmful to one's health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.

Methods to enhance the ocean's uptake of carbon dioxide (CO2) are being explored to help tackle the climate crisis. However, some of these approaches could significantly exacerbate ocean deoxygenation. Their potential impact on marine oxygen must therefore be systematically considered when assessing their suitability.

Scientists at EPFL have created MammAlps, a multi-view, multi-modal video dataset that captures how wild mammals behave in the Swiss Alps.

Homeowners are more likely to take protective measures after flood damage-especially when their insurance supports them.

In a new book, UdeM pharmacist Pierre-Marie David chronicles a secret research project in the Central African Republic begun in 1989 to test soldiers for HIV and vaccinate them.

On June 16, Empa inaugurated its novel methanation plant. The move-MEGA research project is the first to demonstrate so-called sorption-enhanced methanation at pilot scale - a technology developed at Empa that makes the power-to-gas process more flexible and robust.

Professor David Lindenmayer is working to advance conservation science while maintaining a positive place for young scientists to develop their careers.

Personalised drug treatments have outperformed chemotherapy for leukaemia patients in a trial led by Leeds researchers.
