Twelve Cambridge researchers awarded European Research Council funding

22 April 2021

Twelve University of Cambridge researchers have won advanced grants from the European Research Council (ERC), Europe’s premier research funding body. Their work is set to provide new insights into many subjects, such as how to deal with vast scales of data in a statistically robust way, the development of energy-efficient materials for a zero-carbon world, and the development of new treatments for degenerative disease and cancer. Cambridge has the most grant winners of any UK institution, and the second-most winners overall.

Light used to detect quantum information stored in 100,000 nuclear quantum bits

15 February 2021

Researchers have found a way to use light and a single electron to communicate with a cloud of quantum bits and sense their behaviour, making it possible to detect a single quantum bit in a dense cloud.

3D projection of a multi-organoid aggregate

New method developed for ‘up-sizing’ mini organs used in medical research

08 February 2021

A team of engineers and scientists has developed a method of ‘up-sizing’ organoids: miniature collections of cells which mimic the behaviour of various organs and are promising tools for the study of human biology and disease.

Cambridge researchers awarded European Research Council funding

09 December 2020

Five researchers at the University of Cambridge have won consolidator grants from the European Research Council (ERC), Europe’s premiere funding organisation for frontier research.

Major European starting grants awarded

14 September 2020

Six Cambridge researchers are among the latest recipients of European Union awards given to early-career researchers.

Metallic blue fruits use fat to produce colour and signal a treat for birds

06 August 2020

Researchers have found that a common plant owes the dazzling blue colour of its fruit to fat in its cellular structure, the first time this type of colour production has been observed in nature.

AI successfully used to identify different types of brain injuries

15 May 2020

Researchers have developed an AI algorithm that can detect and identify different types of brain injuries.

3D printed corals could improve bioenergy and help coral reefs

09 April 2020

Researchers have designed bionic 3D-printed corals that could help energy production and coral reef research.

New app collects the sounds of COVID-19

06 April 2020

A new app, which will be used to collect data to develop machine learning algorithms that could automatically detect whether a person is suffering from COVID-19 based on the sound of their voice, their breathing and coughing, has been launched by researchers at the University of Cambridge.

Cambridge researchers awarded European Research Council funding

01 April 2020

Four researchers at the University of Cambridge have won advanced grants from the European Research Council (ERC), Europe’s premier research funding body.
