ETH Zurich and PSI found Quantum Computing Hub Research ETH Zurich PSI ETH Zurich and the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) establish a joint centre for the development of quantum computers. Its aim is to advance the realization of quantum computers based on both ion traps and superconducting components. ETH Zurich provides 32 million francs for this centre, which will host around 30 researchers. Vaccination – personal values and group dynamics are decisive Research ETH Zurich How do you get more people to have vaccinations? Gudela Grote firmly believes that it’s worth looking at team dynamics. Global glacier retreat has accelerated Research ETH Zurich An international research team including scientists from ETH Zurich has shown that almost all the world’s glaciers are becoming thinner and losing mass’ and that these changes are picking up pace. The team’s analysis is the most comprehensive and accurate of its kind to date. Uncertainty in academia Teaching ETH Zurich In the last episode of the Uncertainty-Series, we talk to Helga Nowotny and Eric Burns about why uncertainty in research is eminent but at the same time increases pressure on researchers regarding their position. Constitutionally permitted – and even required Politics ETH Zurich Conferring benefits on vaccinated persons by means of a vaccine passport is a controversial issue. Alexander Stremitzer argues that governments are not only legally permitted to lift restrictions for those vaccinated, but may even be obligated to do so.
