Machine learning reduces data processing time from months to seconds
Ever since the world’s first ever microscope was invented in 1590 by Hans and Zacharias Janssen –a Dutch father and son– our curiosity for what goes on at the tiniest scales has led to development of increasingly powerful devices. Fast forward to 2021, we not only have optical microscopy methods that allow us to see tiny particles in higher resolution than ever before, we also have non-optical techniques, such as scanning force microscopes, with which researchers can construct detailed maps of a range of physical and chemical properties.

Sanna’s blog: Introduce RPA as an experience, and celebrate your achievements
by Guestby GuestThe speed with which Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is developing is astonishing. When I look back on projects I did just a few year ago it seems like a different world. But part of the lessons we learnt in implementing RPA then, still hold true today. What remains unchanged as well is the enthusiasm of people when they realize how these software robots can help them in their day-to-day tasks.
