Working at nanoscale dimensions, billionths of a meter in size, a team of scientists led by the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory revealed a new way to measure high-speed fluctuations in magnetic materials. Knowledge obtained by these new measurements, published in Nano Letters, could be used to advance technologies ranging from traditional computing to the emerging field of quantum computing.

Chiba University proudly presents the International Workshop on Space Agriculture and Horticulture 2025, a groundbreaking event set to take place from March 9–11, 2025, at Matsudo Campus, Japan.

Bringing together leading researchers, industry pioneers, and space agencies—including NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA), and the German Aerospace Center (DLR)—this landmark workshop will explore the frontiers of space agriculture and horticulture.

The workshop aims to foster a deeper understanding of research initiatives across institutions worldwide, focusing on space horticulture, bioregenerative life support systems, and plant cultivation beyond Earth.

Through dynamic discussions and interdisciplinary collaboration, we seek to forge new pathways for future collaborative research, driving the next era of sustainable life in space.

We warmly welcome researchers, postgraduate students, industry professionals, and academic communities worldwide to join us in shaping the future of food production beyond our planet.

Lancaster University is leading a £2.1 million project with Cambridge and Durham which aims to revolutionise the field of artificial intelligence (AI) and computing.The Memristive Organometallic Devices formed from Self-Assembled Multilayers (MemOD) programme brings together world leading experts in molecular scale electronics, chemical synthesis, quantum transport, and device fabrication to develop the next generation of computers.MemOD aims to develop high-performance memory devices using self-assembled molecular technology. By leveraging quantum effects at the molecular level, MemOD aims to deliver memory devices that are faster, more stable, and more energy-efficient than current options, all of which are required if computing hardware is to keep up with the growing demands of AI use in all aspects of our lives.
