Unlocking the potential of blood tests through AI

Researchers from DAMTP are helping to develop one of the largest-scale applications yet of machine learning in medicine and healthcare. Discover more about the BloodCounts! project.

Mapping dark matter

New findings have been released by an international collaboration involving DAMTP researchers. They reveal the most detailed map of dark matter distributed across a quarter of the entire sky, reaching deep into the cosmos.

Giant underwater waves affect the ocean’s ability to store carbon

New research has shed light on the important role underwater waves deep below the ocean’s surface – some up to 500 metres tall – play in how the ocean stores heat and carbon.

Enabling a faster internet and better smartphone performance

An algorithm developed by Professor Frank Kelly underpins improvements in mobile phone and internet performance worldwide.
