Choosing the best medical treatment with the help of AI
Research
EPFL
To advance modern medicine, EPFL researchers are developing AI-based diagnostic tools. Their goal is to predict the best treatment a patient should receive.
Designing proteins with their environment in mind
Research
EPFL
EPFL researchers have developed a computational method to explicitly consider the impact of water while designing membrane receptors with enhanced stability and signaling, paving the way for novel drug discovery and protein engineering.
Bat wings boost hovering efficiency
Research
EPFL
EPFL researchers have designed flexible, batlike wings that boost lift and improve flight performance. This innovation could lead to more efficient drones or energy-harvesting technologies.
New study improves the trustworthiness of wind power forecasts
Research
EPFL
By applying techniques from explainable artificial intelligence, engineers can improve users’ confidence in forecasts generated by artificial intelligence models. This approach was recently tested on wind power generation by a team that includes experts from EPFL.
An injectable hydrogel for local bone densification
Research
EPFL
EPFL researchers have combined injections of a novel hydrogel with systemic osteoporosis drugs in rats, achieving rapid local increases in bone density. The results offer hope for future fracture prevention therapies in osteoporosis patients.
Harnessing proteins to clean contaminated soil
Research
EPFL
Scientists from EPFL work on sustainable approaches to soil remediation, like the use of naturally occurring microorganisms that can “eat” pollutants found in soil and the water table.
