Empa Quarterly – our Research Magazine
What are the hot topics in research and technology? What is Empa’s role in all of this? How are inventions from the lab turned into innovations that succeed in the market?

There are polymers that light up when there is an infection with certain germs, tiny gold particles against cancer or “nanozymes” that help mothers with complications during pregnancy without harming the foetus – and much more.
