A team of Polish physicists and engineers is developing a portable device that could detect worsening heart failure at home before fluid buildup in the lungs leads to severe breathlessness and emergency hospitalisation.
Carbon dioxide, the gas widely associated with climate change, has been given a surprising new role by scientists: a safer source of oxygen in chemical reactions used to make medicines, plastics and fragrances.
Standard MRI scans can show the structure of the brain and eye sockets, but they cannot reveal subtle damage to the microscopic fibres of the optic nerve - changes that may appear before irreversible vision loss. Polish researchers have developed a new method of analysing MRI images that could help doctors detect this hidden damage earlier and make more informed treatment decisions.
Polish scientists have developed and patented tiny protective capsules that allow live probiotic bacteria to survive in cosmetics for more than a year, overcoming one of the biggest challenges in creating probiotic skincare products.
An international team of scientists, including researchers from Poland, has developed a new material that emits light when exposed to friction, impact, heat and even ultrasound.
A magnetic hydrogel developed by Polish researchers could one day help repair damaged bones by supporting tissue regeneration and responding to external magnetic fields that influence cell growth, according to a new study.
Artificial intelligence and advanced mathematical software can solve increasingly complex equations, but engineers who rely on them without understanding the mathematics behind the answers risk making poor or even unsafe decisions, according to new research from Poland.
Polish scientists will play a key role in a European Space Agency (ESA) mission to investigate how the solar wind interacts with Earth's magnetosphere, after the agency's Science Programme Committee recommended the Plasma Observatory as the next mission under its Voyage 2050 programme.
Student teams from Poland have won a slew of awards at an international rocket engineering competition in the United States, with a team from Wrocław University of Science and Technology among the event's top performers.
