On a mission to save our soils - the EU's plan to rebuild the land

An international team are building virtual twins on supercomputers to test reaction to major surgery before proceeding and also the treatment of serious illness. These digital doppelgängers will mirror everything from how your heart beats and your lungs work, right down to your personal DNA code.

Achieving the “Green Deal” will involve some radical and innovative projects.

Eindhoven is one of a growing number of European cities using what are being termed Nature Based Solutions to improve urban climate and water resilience issues. Along with Tampere in Finland and Genoa in Italy, this southern Dutch city is at the forefront of the European UNaLab project.
