Luxembourg

Over the past year, the University of Luxembourg has considerably enhanced its international standing.

The Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine (LCSB) has succeeded for the first time in describing the complex relationships within an ecosystem in unprecedented detail. For their work, carried out in collaboration with US and Luxembourg partners, their model ecosystem was a “biological wastewater treatment plant”.

The control of modern infrastructure such as intelligent power grids needs lots of computing capacity.

Luxembourg is to invest €140 million over five years in a bid to become a centre of excellence in molecular medicine, partnering with three leading US institutions to help achieve the aim.

The European Molecular Biology Laboratory [EMBL] has announced that Luxembourg has become its 20th member.
