We pioneer neuro-symbolic methods that retain the interpretability and mechanistic grounding of classical phylogenetics while integrating the representational richness of genomic large language models. Beyond improving phylogenetic accuracy, this enables detailed study of evolutionary dynamics in…

In the context of the introduction and further development of private wards, the hospitality sector is becoming increasingly important. Initial steps towards further developing hospitality services are already being taken in a pragmatic manner, and further measures are being developed.

Collaborative project between ZHAW and SymBioVault GmbH investigating methods for / the collection, / safety screening, / multi-omics analysis and / long-term cryopreservation of autologous human microbiome samples. The study aims to validate technical feasibility and sample viability for…

This project addresses unequal access to safe water and sanitation in South Africa by advancing low-tech greywater treatment solutions (LTGS) that are simple, affordable and locally maintainable. Greywater is produced in large volumes at household level and, if treated appropriately, can reduce…

Fish farms in remote tropical regions, such as Lake Tanganyika in Tanzania, face significant challenges with limited and unreliable access to electricity and inefficient resource utilization. This leads to high production costs and limited investment opportunities in local aquaculture…

Delirium DynamiX harnesses high-resolution USZ ICU data with on-prem LLMs and novel time-series Additive Bayesian Networks. This interpretable modeling of dynamic causal chains enables / earlier delirium detection, / targeted interventions, external validation, / a co-designed dashboard, and / a…

This EU Horizon project focuses on developing scalable cultivation systems for macroalgae (seaweed) to create regenerative, bio-based value chains. The envisioned end products include food, cosmetics, and insulation building materials. A life cycle sustainability assessment (LCSA) as well as a…

NEXTPro develops a 177Lu-based radioligand therapy targeting prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) for prostate cancer patients not responding to PSMA therapies. The project validates the lead candidate NEXTPro-131 through / translational biodistribution, / dosimetry, / efficacy, and / safety…

Radio Signal Anomaly Detection includes / Analysis of geometric, density-based, and reconstruction-based methods for anomaly detection in radio frequency (RF) and audio signals. / Review and integration of public and internal datasets  for model validation. / Implementation, testing, and…
