Poland is one of the world’s top hydrogen producers, while Polish researchers are developing technologies that could use the gas to store renewable energy and produce synthetic fuels, according to Professor Jakub Kupecki, head of the National Centre for Nuclear Research (NCBJ).
A device that stimulates the vagus nerve during sleep has been shown to improve cognitive performance in Alzheimer’s patients after one month of treatment, according to research by scientists from Łódź published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease.
For more than a decade, researchers at the Warsaw University of Technology have been developing inexpensive printed sensors designed to monitor the human body continuously and unobtrusively. What began with a pulse sensor that could be applied to the skin like a temporary tattoo has since expanded into smart insoles, electronic tattoos, wound dressings, brain electrodes and autonomous systems for monitoring water quality.
A method developed by a Polish scientist to measure how cement-based materials shrink has been verified by American scientists and approved by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO).
A new material developed by Polish physicists can be made to glow orange simply by striking, rubbing or hitting it with ultrasound. Physicists from the University of Gdańsk attribute the effect to the release of charges trapped in crystal defects.
There is currently no tool that can determine with certainty whether a text was written by artificial intelligence, while increasingly sophisticated AI models are developing distinctive writing styles that may also be influencing how humans use language, according to a linguist from the University of Gdańsk.
An international team of scientists has developed an artificial intelligence system that can significantly improve the accuracy of diagnosis of hereditary retinal diseases, according to a study published in the journal Nature Medicine.
Scientists from the International Centre for Translational Eye Research (ICTER) have developed a tomography system that can simultaneously track how nine points of the cornea respond to a puff of air, potentially paving the way for more accurate, non-contact assessment of eye biomechanics and earlier detection of diseases such as keratoconus.
A seven-member Polish team has taken fourth place among 200 teams in the qualifying rounds of the URKL 2026 humanoid robot tournament, achieving the best result by a European team.
Polish scientists have developed a nanocomposite gel that has been used to safely remove old conservation materials from a historic painting by renowned artist Włodzimierz Tetmajer.
