And our #ProjectOfTheMonth is ... 🥁🏆: ATTRACT2
This #EUfunded project aims to help breakthrough technologies & innovations reach the market by making them more attractive to private funders.
How? 👉https://europa.eu/!Gww8TP
Making good ideas become more than just ideas 👏
What can the #BlackDeath teach us about social mobility? 🐀
Through an extensive database on social mobility trends in Europe since the 1300s, researchers hope to help us learn from our mistakes.
And most importantly, avoid #history repeating itself: https://europa.eu/!fWVD6x
How much do you know about mummies? 💀
The ArchFarm project received messages from beyond the grave 🪦 that could help us better understand ancient mortuary practices – and an entire society.
Let’s dig up a bit more about this: https://europa.eu/!W7T6HB
Happy #Halloween! 🎃 This year, we’re digging up a bit more about our death traditions.
When & why did humans start using tombstones? 🪦
Our funerary archaeologist Saša Čaval digs up the truth about our common practices at the cemetery: https://europa.eu/!jkVff3
And make sure you measure the footprint you leave in this world 👣🌍
#ClimateChange acceleration highlights even more the need for efficient and proactive water management 💧
EU researchers from the @Fiware4Water project show how digitalising the water sector could help overcome water challenges: https://europa.eu/!DRBFxv
Sometimes molecules just click – as simple as that ✨
Something that 🇩🇰 chemist M. Meldal can relate to.
The #NobelPrize2022 in Chemistry rewards his research for showing that functional molecules can be built even by taking a straightforward route.

And then, pollination happened! 🌼🌻🌺 – Easier said than done.
By identifying the supergene that makes efficient cross-#pollination possible in flowers, the #EUfunded SuperGenE project has unravelled a centuries-old mystery. 👇

Every year, nearly 1 million women undergo breast reconstruction after #BreastCancer.
Most of these use silicone implants, but they’re not risk-free.

#BreastCancer could be better described as a collection of very different diseases – each evolving & interacting differently.
Understanding the heterogeneous aspect of tumour biology improves our ability to treat the condition: https://europa.eu/!w6KyG4
Early diagnosis is a must for #BreastCancer; but current diagnoses rely on a minimum tumour size 🤔
The project BrEXo-Apt has developed a non-invasive yet accurate test for the disease in the form of a kit: https://europa.eu/!cypFg3
