When rigid instruments reach their limits, magnetic fields provide welcome assistance: researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a robotic platform designed to make procedures for complications in twin pregnancies safer, more manageable and more precise.
Researchers at ETH Zurich and the Paul Scherrer Institute have produced an intense, cold beam of exotic atoms. They aim to use this to test a fundamental principle of Einstein’s theory of gravity – the universality of free fall.
Peatlands hold many secrets – and one of the most remarkable lies in their microbes. ETH researchers have been visiting the Entlebuch peatlands to discover what role these tiny organisms play in this unique ecosystem.
