EPFL Carbon Team aims to capture CO2 with sieves and sponges
Teaching
EPFL
The team of students is working on a unique prototype that uses graphene membranes combined with a porous, sponge-like material to pull carbon from the atmosphere. The technology will soon be tested on an EPFL campus, with the captured CO2 used to produce carbonated water.
Scientists gain insight into geothermal-technology induced seismicity
Research
EPFL
EPFL scientists have developed a model that sheds light on the seismic risks arising from subsurface fluid injections carried out as part of geothermal energy extraction. 
A Novel Biosensor for Detecting Neurogenerative Disease Protiens
Research
EPFL
Researchers at EPFL introduce the highly-multidisciplinary, AI-enhanced, biosensing tool ImmunoSEIRA for the detection of misfolded proteins linked to Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease.
An easier way to learn quantum processes
Research
EPFL
EPFL scientists show that even a few simple examples are enough for a quantum machine-learning model, the “quantum neural networks”, to learn and predict the behavior of quantum systems, bringing us closer to a new era of quantum computing.
EPFL launched a pioneering project to detect pollen, dust and smoke
Research
EPFL
Since the start of this year, a suite of instruments has been hard at work detecting a broad spectrum of aerosols at the MeteoSwiss weather station in Payerne, in Vaud Canton. This pioneering project – a joint initiative between EPFL, the Swiss Federal Office of Meteorology Climatology and European partners – aims to improve pollen forecasting and to gain further insights into the critical impact that bioaerosols, smoke and dust have on cloud formation and climate.
Robot Assisted Surgery: Four Arms Are Better Than Two
Research
EPFL
Researchers at EPFL have developed the first system that enables four-arm laparoscopic surgery by controlling two additional robotic arms via haptic foot interfaces.
