Electronic metadevices break barriers to ultra-fast communications
EPFL researchers have come up with a new approach to electronics that involves engineering metastructures at the sub-wavelength scale. It could launch the next generation of ultra-fast devices for exchanging massive amounts of data, with applications in 6G communications and beyond.
3D printing with bacteria-loaded ink produces bone-like composites
EPFL researchers have published a method for 3D-printing an ink that contains calcium carbonate-producing bacteria. The 3D-printed mineralized bio-composite is unprecedently strong, light, and environmentally friendly, with a range of applications from art to biomedicine.
“A brain well-formed is better than 20 brains well-filled”
Jean-Philippe Thiran, head of the Signal Processing Laboratory 5 in the School of Engineering, has been named best teacher in the electrical and electronic engineering section at EPFL for 2022. The award caps a vocation that began in childhood: at the age of 12, he was already helping classmates with their math exercises.
Prototyping Sports Tech: Enhancing Performance and Sustainability
In the latest edition of the graduate course “Innovation and Entrepreneurship in Engineering,” students across many disciplines at EPFL tackled prototyping challenges at the intersection of sports and technology.
Chromo-encryption method encodes secrets with color In a new approach to security that unites technology and art, EPFL researchers have combined silver nanostructures with polarized light to yield a range of brilliant colors, which can be used to encode messages.Read more about the School of Engineering Read all the news from the School of Engineering and learn more about the STEM passion exhibition, on view until March 19, 2023 at the Rolex Learning Center, featuring portraits of international women researchers, including seven female EPFL professors chosen as role models, Dimitri Van De Ville elevated to EURASIP fellow, the six SNSF Consolidator Grants awarded to EPFL researchers and much more...
