AI can now generate fake microscopy images that are nearly impossible to detect. A serious threat to scientific integrity—and we’re not prepared for it.

These are the most challenging times for early-career scientists and engineers.

My team is doing its bit to help by maintaining and even expanding our database of funding opportunities for early-career researchers.

We found 437 of them.

Formula 1 celebrates 75 years this week, and we have a long history of working with F1 teams to improve their aerodynamics 🏁🤝🏼

As many of graduates have gone on to work in F1, every team on the grid this weekend will have at least one of our graduates 🎓🌟
