Exciting new project at Chalmers Uni (home of Prof Astrid Linder & world’s 1st female crash test dummy) to combat technology courses designed only for men! @CCriadoPerez can we tell you more?
"Now for the first time we can see the black hole at the centre of the Milky Way. This image is putting theories about the nature of space and time to the test. It’s an exciting time to be working in science", says Michael Lindqvist at #wearechalmers chalmers.se/en/departments/s…
From @ESO astronomers just presented the first picture of a #blackhole in the center of our own galaxy the #Milkyway. Eleven observatories around the world have collaborated, amongst them @OnsalaRymd
at Chalmers University of Technology. #wearechalmers

After a 2 year absence, this weekend saw the much-anticipated return of the #Cortege to #Gothenburg's streets, where students construct giant sculptures + vehicles and parade through the city centre. Check out the video and see pictures here!

Read how Chalmers #researchers used #CRISPR technology to investigate thousands of ways to improve the ability of #baker's #yeast to convert #biomass into #renewable #biofuel - a process which could prove vital for a future #sustainable society:

Congratulations are in order to Thierry Coquand from @cse_gbg who has been awarded a *second* @ERC_Research Advanced Grant to continue his work on representation of #mathematical proofs. A fantastic achievement to be awarded twice!

A special #molecule that can store #solar #energy for up to 18 years - see a video from the World Economic Forum @wef about groundbreaking research from Chalmers:
It contains a specially designed molecule that absorbs solar power.
Take a closer look at the power of renewable energy: ow.ly/T6tK50IQ2EP
The #noisepollution from fans in #ventilation systems can be harmful to our #health and #wellbeing - but now researchers from Chalmers are the first in the world to develop a new design that eliminates part of the disturbing #sound during operation:

Robots outperform humans in many tasks, but they struggle with improvisation and adaptation to unexpected obstacles. Now, Chalmers #researchers have developed a new form of #AI which they hope will teach #robots to be more #dynamic and flexible:

In order to support Ukrainian 🇺🇦 #students and PhD students on the run, Chalmers will present possibilities to help those who recently have arrived in Sweden to continue their studies. Register for a meeting at Chalmers in Gothenburg, 22 April. chalmers.se/en/about-chalmer…
After previously demonstrating how solar energy can be stored and then extracted as heat, researchers at Chalmers have now succeeded in getting the system to produce electricity. They can convert solar energy to electricity – on demand. @KMothPoulsen chalmers.se/en/departments/c…
A great report from Associated Press @AP into a radical #Swedish project to produce #fossilfree #steel, with contributions from Chalmers Professor Filip Johnsson:

See a report into #electric #scooter research on Swedish television @svtnyheter here!
Researcher Marco Dozza explains how the differences between #bicycles and scooters require different safety approaches in #urban #traffic:

Love them or hate them, electric #scooters are an ever more common sight in cities worldwide, and their usage is only on the up. Now, new research explores how they can move through #urban #environments safely, and how they might differ from #bicycles:

To save the #climate, #technology alone will not be enough. Our consumption has to change too: less #meat, fewer #flights, and other radical changes. That is the conclusion of Swedish #researchers in a new #report commissioned by the #Swedish #Government:
chalmers.se/en/departments/s…
#Biomass and #biofuel has a lot of potential for a #fossilfree future, but disposing of the byproduct #lignin remains a challenge. Now a new research project at Chalmers is looking into developing tailored #enzymes that can speed up the process:

"There is no silver bullet" when it comes to reducing #emissions from #transport. Read an interview with Sonia Yeh, one of the authors of the latest @IPCC_CH report into measures to tackle #climatechange

A new lab has opened at Chalmers in collaboration with @ericsson for cutting-edge #research and #development in #5G technology. The lab will offer students and researchers the chance to work at the forefront of areas like #AI and #connectivity:

An honour to welcome US Ambassador Erik D. Ramanathan @USAmbSweden to the #quantum technology centre @wacqt_sweden at Chalmers yesterday to discuss how US - Sweden ties can yield progress. #Sweden and the #US are world leaders in the field of #quantumcomputing
