Seven new feasibility studies will explore how digital technologies, business model innovation and analysis can reduce energy demand and carbon production. The studies, supported with a £340,000 investment from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and Siemens, include using digital technologies to monitor and ultimately reduce emissions at ports and supermarkets.
What do the DNA sequencing technology used in rapid low-cost COVID tests, a hydrogen fuel cell, and computer game animation software all have in common? All of them were created and propelled to global success by spin-out companies built on a solid foundation of the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) funded research and […]
A new tool using high-power lasers could be used to improve the treatment of cancer. Developed by researchers at Queen’s University Belfast, the tool generates a bright, ultrashort particle source that can be used to investigate how biological samples respond to radiation under extreme conditions.
One of the UK’s most eye-catching economic success stories has been south-west England’s emergence as a world-renowned powerhouse in the creative industries.
Researchers funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) are driving innovations in semiconductor disk laser technology, combining physics and optical engineering techniques.
Decades of EPSRC support for pioneering work at the University of Southampton has been vital to drive a thriving photonics cluster in and around the city – a cluster crucial to the UK’s ability to punch above its weight in this here-and-now yet firmly future-focused sector.
A project funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) is providing real-time information on flooding in Mexico, using remote water sensing over cellular phone systems.
