The EU has introduced new legislation for plants developed using new genomic techniques. If Switzerland were to follow a different path, it would increase red tape and make it harder to exchange plant material for research, breeding and agriculture, says ETH professor Bruno Studer.
The Apertus team, a group of researchers at EPFL, ETH Zurich, and the Swiss National Supercomputing Centre (CSCS), partners with Swiss technology company Proton to make Apertus 1.5 available in Lumo, Proton’s AI assistant. This enables the researchers to gain direct feedback from real-world use for the first time.
When rigid instruments reach their limits, magnetic fields provide welcome assistance: researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a robotic platform designed to make procedures for complications in twin pregnancies safer, more manageable and more precise.
