Cutting-edge research from Basel Research ETH Zurich From new tests and therapies to the fundamental principles of biology: five compelling examples of the benefits of new bioengineering technologies. ETH students accelerate private sector innovation TechTransfer ETH Zurich Students at ETH Zurich are working together with engineers from the technology firm Bühler to accelerate innovation and minimise the attendant risks. It's a fruitful collaboration that other companies are also poised to benefit from. ETH Zurich logistics tool saves ICRC millions Research ETH Zurich The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) provides medical supplies to people in need. A planning tool developed by researchers at ETH Zurich will make this complex task more efficient in future and save the ICRC millions. A new solution for energy transfer to heart pumps Research ETH Zurich Roughly one in two wearers of ventricular assist devices are diagnosed with an infection. The reason for this is the thick cable for the power supply. ETH Zurich researchers have now developed a solution to mitigate this problem. Innovative coating prevents limescale formation Research ETH Zurich Wherever hot water flows, limescale is never far away. In households, this is a nuisance; in thermal power stations, it’s an expensive problem. Now researchers at ETH Zurich have found an answer. Why olivine and diamonds are best friends Research ETH Zurich Hardly any gemstone is more difficult to find than diamonds. Geologists from ETH Zurich and the University of Melbourne have now established a link between their occurrence and the mineral olivine. This could make the search for diamonds easier in the future.
