EU-funded researchers are developing a smarter system of sustainable cooling, replacing toxic refrigerants with safer, more efficient and recyclable metals, writes Kaja Šeruga.

The future of urban mobility is near. EU-backed trials of driverless cars in public transport could make Europe’s city centres affordable, cleaner, safer, more efficient, inclusive and fair.

Scaling up nanoparticle production could help scientists test new cancer treatments.

Upending a long-held supposition, researchers find a common catalyst works by cycling between two different forms.

New research finds liquid air energy storage could be the lowest-cost option for ensuring a continuous power supply on a future grid dominated by carbon-free but intermittent sources of electricity.

These bacteria, which could be designed to detect pollution or nutrients, could act as sensors to help farmers monitor their crops.
