From supermarket checkouts to Olympic stadiums, video surveillance is becoming smarter, more pervasive, and increasingly controversial.
Incredible advances with direct societal implications have been made thanks to quantum mechanics. Over the past 100 years, quantum physics has also revolutionized classical physics. And we haven't seen everything yet! Interview with Vincenzo Savona, professor and academic director of the Center for Quantum Science and Engineering at EPFL.
Custom-designed receptors boost cancer-fighting T cells
Published:03.11.25 — Scientists at EPFL and UNIL-CHUV have developed a computational method to create synthetic receptors that help engineered T cells respond more effectively to tumors.
An electronic fiber for stretchable sensing
Published:31.10.25 — EPFL researchers have engineered a fiber-based electronic sensor that remains functional even when stretched to over 10 times its original length. The device holds promise for smart textiles, physical rehabilitation devices, and soft robotics.
Switching memories on and off with epigenetics
Published:30.10.25 — EPFL scientists have found that changing the “packaging” of DNA in neurons can turn memories on or off in mice.
Bridging light, microwaves and electrons for precision calibration
Published:29.10.25 — EPFL researchers have developed a method to calibrate electron spectrometers with extreme accuracy by linking microwave, optical, and free-electron frequencies.
A new prototype E-Voting system finally solves the coercion problem
Published:28.10.25 — EPFL researchers have developed and tested Votegral a complete e-voting pipeline, demonstrating for the first time that there is a plausible and practical approach to coercion-resistant electronic voting in elections.
