Unique fingerprints on ancient statues revealed in groundbreaking research on Artus Quellinus

In the evolving landscape of retail, brands increasingly pursue direct-to-consumer (DTC) strategies to gain greater control over customer relationships and data. According to Michiel Van Crombrugge, Associate Professor at Erasmus School of Economics, this shift, however, can strain relationships with traditional retail partners.

Researchers from Eindhoven are working with partners on the Hybrid Heart: a soft robotic heart that should eventually be able to attract the body's own cells to prevent rejection and complications. The research consortium has now published the first test results with an early prototype in Nature Communications.

A team of astronomers led by Michael Janssen (Radboud University, The Netherlands) has trained a neural network with millions of synthetic black hole data sets. Based on the network and data from the Event Horizon Telescope, they now predict, among other things, that the black hole at the center of our Milky Way is spinning at near top speed. The astronomers publish their results and methodology in three papers in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics.

An international research collaboration co-led by Radboud University and IMDEA Networks' researchers discovers a potential privacy abuse involving Meta and Yandex bridging persistent identifiers to browsing histories.
