Malcolm Skingle has seen huge changes in his 20 years as chair of Diamond's Industrial Science Committee (DISCo). Awarded CBE in 2009 for his services to the pharmaceutical industry, he has been a pivotal figure in DISCo, set up to facilitate engagement with industry.  He started out meeting in a portacabin in 2004 with David Clark from the EPSRC and Gert Materlik, Diamond's founding CEO, before the facility even existed.

Can artificial intelligence-powered tools help enrich child development and learning? That question is the crux of a series of research projects led by Zhen Bai, an assistant professor of computer science at the University of Rochester and the Biggar Family Fellow in Data Science at the Goergen Institute for Data Science. From tools to help parents of deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) children learn American Sign Language (ASL) to interactive games that demystify machine learning, Bai aims to help children benefit from AI and understand how it is impacting them.

Mr Goh Chok Tong, Emeritus Senior Minister, launched the National Heart Centre Singapore’s (NHCS) new Centre for Advanced Metabolic Imaging (CAMI) at the 5^th NHCS Heart to Heart Gala on 15 November 2024 at The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore. The CAMI is a state-of-the-art research facility that sets to revolutionise the study of metabolic health and its profound impact on heart disease.

University of Tennessee researchers are developing a noninvasive method to study brain chemicals, aiming to advance understanding of neurological conditions. This innovative approach could lead to improved diagnostics and treatments for disorders like depression and Alzheimer's, highlighting UT's commitment to cutting-edge scientific exploration.

Computer simulations are helping scientists and engineers improve predictions for liquefaction — a sometimes deadly earthquake effect where the soil loses its stiffness, thus toppling buildings and more. A dataset that provides key input for assessing earthquake-induced liquefaction triggering won a 2024 DesignSafe Dataset award, which recognized the dataset's diverse contributions to natural hazards research.

Meet NSLS-II Vacuum Group Leader Robert Todd and learn about the crucial role high-tech vacuum systems play in maintaining ultra-bright X-ray light for cutting-edge scientific research.

The ten-day summer camp, which is now in its third iteration, sees the students join one of the 80+ research units at OIST, where they contribute directly to lab research, working closely with professors, researchers and graduate students. The Keio students also participate in various scientific, recreational and cultural activities in and around the OIST campus, such as coral planting excursions, taking classes in Okinawan language and history, or attending workshops on academic English or on how to play the sanshin.

27 countries join forces to establish a unique pan-European reference database comprising of a minimum of 100,000 genomes representative of European citizens.
