'Smart' Tattoos

A case study from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) which describes a new simple and convenient way for people with diabetes to check their own sugar levels. 'Smart' tattoos enable constant monitoring of glucose levels without the need for blood samples. EPSRC is a part of the Research...

A Bridge Too Many

A Bridge too Many, from the Centre for Science Education, is a set of teaching materials which offer a cross-curricular approach to learning about engineering. The context for the activities is a challenge based on a large model bridge that has been pre-constructed using prefabricated components, with weak pins...

A Clearer Picture of Climate Change

A case study produced by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). More accurate global weather forecasts and a better understanding of climate change are in prospect thanks to a breakthrough by electrical engineers at Queen’s University Belfast. 

The team has developed a high...

Avoid Traffic Pollution by Crossing the Street

A case study produced by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). In built-up urban areas, pedestrians could reduce the amount of traffic pollution they breathe in simply by crossing the street, according to joint EPSRC/NERC-funded research. Fresher air can be found on the windward side of...

Building Incubators

Building Incubators, from the Centre for Science Education, is a set of teaching materials which offer a cross-curricular approach to learning about bioengineering and the survival of premature babies. The context is designing a temperature-regulated environment to help...

Building Sustainable Cities

A case study from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) archives which looks at Birmingham Eastside, an exciting redevelopment that will create a new learning and technology quarter in the city. EPSRC-supported researchers at the University of Birmingham are helping make this project - and...
