AlphaFold’s feat, Alzheimer’s fraud, and more: THE WEEKLY RECAP (2022#30)
One week until holidays, so quite a busy schedule in the lab, trying to finish as much as possible before the break. This week we have some interesting links on image manipulation, climate change, remote sensing by using fibers, and a cool application of Artificial Intelligence. Let’s start: Nothing to see here A piece of…

During my stay in Paris, one of the topics I have been working on is related to the problem of imaging objects hidden by scattering media. While seeing stuff through transparent materials is quite easy, the thing becomes much more complicated when light gets randomly deviated in all directions. This might seem quite a particular…

Additive manufacturing for the development of optical/photonic systems and components
Earlier this year, I was at Photonics Europe 2022 in Strasbourg. I had a lot of fun with many talks, but there was one topic that really piqued my interest: additive manufacturing. I have always been interested in 3D printing, and I know from experience how useful they can be: printing mechanical pieces in the…

The death of Google Search?, scientists saying goodbye to academia, and more: THE WEEKLY RECAP (2022#25)
This week I want to share a few links regarding the way internet is changing, how good old-fashioned money can be superior to the latest crypto-coin, a bit of environmental science, and the hurdles of academia. Let’s get to it: The end of an era This was a very nice read that made me think…
