La radiopharmacie hier, aujourd'hui et demain
Les médicaments radiopharmaceutiques permettent de combattre certains types de cancers de façon personnalisée. Des décennies de recherche intensive ont été nécessaires pour se hisser à ce niveau de précision. Et l’avenir promet de meilleures chances de traitement encore.
Le potentiel du biométhane suisse
En utilisant intelligemment la biomasse, la Suisse pourrait couvrir elle-même une part substantielle de ses besoins en gaz et renforcer ainsi son indépendance par rapport au marché mondial.
Rendre le cancer moins terrifiant
Les scientifiques du PSI développent de nouvelles techniques et de nouveaux médicaments afin d’éliminer les tumeurs de façon précise et personnalisée.
Une machine à remonter le temps vers l’état le plus stable
Le logiciel open source GEMS permet de calculer la chimie de systèmes complexes. Un nouveau consortium national garantit désormais son développement à long terme.
