Led by Professor Michael Bronstein (DeepMind Chair in Artificial Intelligence, Department of Computer Science), the Oxford hub will focus on the mathematics and computational research which is foundational to AI, and which could unlock new,…

Accurate sequencing of genetic material is crucial in modern biology, particularly for comprehending and addressing diseases linked to genetic anomalies. However, current methodologies encounter substantial constraints. In a landmark study,…

Traditionally, these elusive whirls could only be produced in materials that have limited compatibility with silicon, hindering their practical application. This obstacle was overcome by developing a new form of magnetic layers that can…

The study, which is published in The Lancet Rheumatology and led jointly by researchers from the Universities of Oxford, Glasgow, and KU Leuven, reveals that having gout is linked with a 58% higher risk of cardiovascular disease, with…

Published in Nature Climate Change, the study found that exported used vehicles generate at least 13-53% more emissions per mile than those that are scrapped or on the road in Great Britain. The researchers used mandatory annual vehicle…

It has long been thought that prolonged COVID-19 infections in immunocompromised individuals may have been the source of the multiple new variants that arose during the coronavirus pandemic and seeded successive waves of infection,…

Researchers from Oxford University’s Nuffield Department of Orthopaedics, Rheumatology and Musculoskeletal Sciences (NDORMS), University College London and the Centre for Ethnic Health Research, supported by Health Data Research UK, have…

The series, called My Baby’s Brain, has been developed to support parents of premature babies, enabling them to understand why premature babies have apnoeas, the treatment they receive, and the equipment that is used. My Baby’s Brain is a…

The revised ‘Oxford Offsetting Principles’ provide clarifications to the original text based on the latest science, call for a major course-correction in carbon markets and offsetting practices, and outline how offsetting needs to be…

The researchers carried out a meta-analysis based on evidence from 13 longitudinal studies, covering a range of high-income countries.* Each study assessed quality of healthcare measures for patients before and after health service…
