A brighter future? Anti-ageing treatment for solar panels

Solar power is potentially an almost limitless resource. The sun provides enough energy in one minute to supply the world’s energy needs for one year. But turning this resource into affordable electricity is difficult – silicon-based solar cells…

Understanding river floods and their causes

Major floods around the world have raised questions about the frequency and magnitude of such phenomena. Although changes in climate and land use are known to play a critical role in river floods, how they actually translate into considerable…

Marine algae reveal close link between past climate and CO2

The ocean is filled with microscopic algae that take up carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere in order to grow. A new study by researchers from the Geology Department at the University of Oviedo (Spain) shows that the algae may adapt to rising…

What does our brain say about our social nature?
Cognitive psychology
The ERC has put together this collection of ERC projects to give a taste of the breadth and depth of some of its funded research in cognitive psychology. You’ll read about: the acquisition of language in infants; the underlying mechanisms of reading; the way our brain computes numbers; the cognitive and neural substrate of social interactions or the influence of social context on our perception of the world.
