Current Media Releases
Significant funding for studying proteins in action
Four researchers, including one based at PSI, have jointly been awarded an ERC Synergy Grant. Together, they aim to develop a new method at PSI’s X-ray free-electron laser SwissFEL to investigate how protein dynamics are influenced by electric fields.
Wildfire in a wood-burning stove
Researchers at PSI have demonstrated in a laboratory experiment how, after wildfires, nitrate in the atmosphere is converted into nitrogen oxides, which are harmful to health and the climate.
Making life cycle assessment more accurate
Life cycle assessments are an important basis for political decisions. However, they are often based on incomplete data. A PSI study shows how hybrid methods can deliver more accurate results.
Detecting radioactivity from the air – more accurately than ever
In an emergency, every minute counts. PSI researchers have developed a method by which, in case of a nuclear accident, radioactive material can be identified within seconds and with significantly greater accuracy than before.
