A Flexible Biorefinery using Machine Learning
Biorefineries convert biomass, such as wood, annual plants or agricultural into products and energy. Research teams in Finland and Germany aim to maximize such product output for a more holistic valorization of our natural resources.

Researchers aim to correct quantum errors at super-cold temperatures instead of room temperature
One of the major challenges in the development of quantum computers is that the quantum bits, or qubits, are too imprecise. More efficient quantum error correction is therefore needed to make quantum computers more widely available in the future. Professor Mikko M枚tt枚nen has proposed a novel solution for quantum error correction and has received a three-year grant from the Jane and Aatos Erkko Foundation to develop it.
