Scientists at the Warsaw University of Technology are developing a device that can detect plant diseases early by analyzing the unique “fragrance bouquet” of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by plants.
Poland and Germany have completed the first international fibre-optic link for comparing ultra-precise time measurements between laboratories, marking a significant step toward building a pan-European timekeeping network.
Polish space technology company Scanway has been selected by the European Space Agency (ESA) to process lunar surface imagery as part of a 2026 joint mission with U.S.-based Intuitive Machines.
A new model of academic conferencing powered by artificial intelligence and virtual reality has been piloted at the OCETA Connect: AI/XR in Higher Education event, held by the Adam Mickiewicz University.
Professor Paweł Moskal from the Jagiellonian University has been awarded a prestigious European Research Council (ERC) Advanced Grant for a groundbreaking project that aims to transform cancer diagnostics. His team is exploring whether quantum measurements from a PET scan could non-invasively determine tissue oxygenation levels—a key indicator of tumour malignancy—offering a potential alternative to traditional biopsies.
Researchers from the Systems Research Institute of the Polish Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Infoklinika SA, have developed an artificial intelligence-based system for managing memory farms—large-scale data storage infrastructures—tailored to user-defined priorities, such as speed or energy efficiency.
Scientists from the Łukasiewicz – Industrial Chemistry Institute in Warsaw have developed a new class of hydrogels made from natural polymers, including starch, that can self-repair structural damage within hours.
A team of physicists from Poland and Germany has pushed the boundaries of experimental physics by using a thousand-kilometre quantum interferometer to search for dark matter.
Scientists from The University of Gdańsk have developed a new technology for purifying air of volatile organic compounds and viruses. The invention is protected by a patent.
The development of new passive heating and cooling materials that can significantly reduce energy consumption in construction is the objective of the BIOTHERM project led by Łukasiewicz - Institute of Microelectronics and Photonics. The inspiration for scientists are black butterfly wings.
