Common experience tells us that oil and water do not mix. Yet, it turns out that they can mix when oil is dispersed as small droplets in water. This strange behavior has long vexed scientists because there is no explanation for it. A team of EPFL and ICTP scientists have studied this question using

Scientists at EPFL, the Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research and Wageningen University & Research have developed a new deep-learning model for counting the number of seals in aerial photos that is considerably faster than doing it by hand. With this new method, valuable time and resource

Fully operational for two weeks, the Dubochet Center for Imaging was presented to the press on November 22. The DCI houses the world’s most advanced cryo-electron microscopes, which promises considerable advances in biomedical research thanks to the precision of the images that these microscopes can

By combining two microscopy methods, EPFL researchers are able to see what is happening inside a cell and on its membrane simultaneously, giving unprecedented insight into the cellular processes that occur during infection, for example.

EPFL’s College of Humanities (CDH) and Center for Imaging are joining forces. Two CDH research labs will work with the Center on cross-disciplinary projects that bring together data, art and science. CDH has also launched an artist-in-residence program whereby researchers conduct projects related to

Six projects were selected among very strong submissions to the “Call for Interdisciplinary Projects in Imaging” recently launched by the EPFL Center for Imaging. These grants are intended to encourage cross-fertilization and foster new developments in the vast field of scientific imaging.
