Ten outstanding Cambridge researchers have been elected as Fellows of the Royal Society, the UK’s national academy of sciences and the oldest science academy in continuous existence.
Researchers say it is vital that children born by caesarean section receive two doses of the measles vaccine for robust protection against the disease.
This year’s Gates Cambridge cohort comprises 75 new scholars, studying areas from the impact of climate change on tropical biodiversity to how the circulation of conflict photographs shapes perception.
Cambridge Zero and Cambridge Global Food Security gather academics and experts to share solutions for the planet’s looming food production problem.
Vaccination not only reduces the severity of TB in infected cattle, but reduces its spread in dairy herds by 89%, research finds.
Cambridge Zero collaborates with Cambridge Global Food Security Interdisciplinary Research Centre (IRC) and the University of Cambridge Decarbonisation Network for two research events in March 2024 that look at industry decarbonisation and food security.
Cambridge historian Professor Sir Richard Evans, a world authority on the Nazis and author of the forthcoming Hitler’s People, will be speaking at a panel event on one of the big questions of our time: How do wars end?

In 2013, Cambridge opened its first-ever overseas research centre, the Cambridge Centre for Advanced Research and Education in Singapore (CARES). Over the past decade, CARES has grown into a thriving community of 150 staff and researchers, working with partners to achieve scientific breakthroughs with a global impact.
How did the molecular building blocks for life end up on Earth? One long-standing theory is that they could have been delivered by comets. Now, researchers from the University of Cambridge have shown how comets could deposit similar building blocks to other planets in the galaxy.
