Good news from around Europe
Currently, there is a large, untapped market for climate services with gaps in the demand and supply. An EU-funded project is providing insight into the climate service market – reducing barriers for business and encouraging European market growth. Powered by WPeMatico
EU-funded researchers have developed a framework for understanding how we record memories by creating a model that simulates the behaviour of single neurons across different timescales. The research could help build on our understanding of how human memory works and lead to developments in the burgeoning field of artificial neural
Treatment options for the immune system disorder Graves’ disease have remained unchanged for over 70 years, and all bring serious side effects. An innovative EU-funded project is helping scientists and doctors move closer to finding a safer, more effective alternative. Powered by WPeMatico
Green Skills, Digital Skills, Lifelong Learning and Recruitment in the dairy sector. These are the 4 topics of the conference, which are a result of a vast research conducted in 14 European countries to identify the skills gaps between the dairy industry and the dairy educations. With a draft report
Fish farming has become an important source of high-quality protein. But aquaculture farmers often suffer high losses. A mobile application developed by an EU-funded project offers farmers much-needed, near-real-time support to increase yields – boosting their sustainability and competitiveness. Powered by WPeMatico
An EU-funded project has researched lesser-known and not industrially farmed pig breeds in a bid to help Europe’s pork industry diversify and become more sustainable. This could help save endangered breeds, benefit the environment and result in new, high-quality meat options for consumers. Powered by WPeMatico
Underwater sensing, robotics, communications – the scope for innovation in maritime technology is broad. An EU-funded project enabled research institute INESC TEC in Portugal to expand its capacity to devise new systems for marine environments, which could ultimately help to generate smart growth and jobs.

Czech Liaison Office for Research, Development and Innovation (CZELO) and its partners are pleased to announce that the fifteenth Science Café, an unconventional open discussion with scientist, will take place on 3 October 2019 in the Pilsen House in Brussels. Our guest will be Luděk Hynčík, the Vice-Rector for Research
Our brains are larger than those of most other species, and hefty even in relation to our body mass. Is this the result of an ‘arms race’ triggered by social drivers such as competition? Probably not, according to EU-funded research that points primarily to environmental challenges and provided fresh food
EU-funded researchers have laid the foundation for a revolution in communications and computing by harnessing the unique properties of light to create, manipulate and measure ‘quantum rainbows’. Powered by WPeMatico
