Special Feature: A Quantum Leap Forward for European Fundamental Research

Summary:

This issue's special feature focuses on groundbreaking EU-funded research in quantum technologies, including a number of projects development in this field across Europe. TheĀ Project of the Month meets the H-Unique team, who work to create an application that could identify child abusers just by using image of their hands. Life After catches up with a scientist who is dedicated to enhancing international cooperation in the field of nuclear safety. The thematic sections provide a roundup of EU-funded research results across a broad spectrum of subjects. Finally, CORDIS remains dedicated to keeping readers informed on how European researchers are supporting scientific endeavours in the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic.
