… and long conversations. We also met a lot of people hiking on our way. Plus, one thing that compensates for everything is the scenery. You don't see these beautiful landscapes every day. On the way, we were really sticking to the plan. We would start to look to set-up camp at the 29 km mark. Planning is key in these sorts of journeys. Only once did we have a problem with finding the right camp side, and even then, we did eventually manage to find the right spot. Once we got to our destination …
… be as critical. There’s also the concern as to who will succeed Biden. It could be Trump again, or someone in the Trumpian mould.” Europe’s reticence to follow Biden’s hard line towards China shows that it wants to go its own way in security and military affairs, Vanhoonacker says. “There’s been a growing awareness since the end of the Cold War in 1989. Will America remain committed to European security? Not that this has led to much in the way of concrete action.” Ironically, it may have been Trump, with his America First policy, who got the ball rolling. Developing greater strategic autonomy is now official EU policy. This means investing more in its own security and building up its own military power. Own direction Vanhoonacker explains why Europe has to set its own geopolitical course. “The world order is shifting. The bipolar order between East and West during the Cold War was not ideal, but it was stable and transparent: the threat … with America’s attention shifting to Asia.” Additionally, the EU is not seen as a global power by the other major powers. “They respect it as a trading power, but when it comes to the geopolitical game it’s not taken seriously. Europe is militarily dependent on America and NATO.” Hans van Vinkeveen (text), Ted Struwer (illustrations) Sophie Vanhoonacker is professor of Administrative Governance and Jean Monnet professor at the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences.

… filtered out, saved and analysed, reducing LHCb’s output to a much more manageable 10 gigabytes – or 3,000 MP3 songs – per second. Those trigger systems, too, are scheduled to be upgraded. Change of plans “Preparation for the 2021 upgrade already started around ten years ago”, says Dr. Daniel Cámpora, whose PhD work became the catalyst for a change of plans. “For a long time, the idea was to install better versions of current hardware: faster processors, for example.” Processors, also known as … had achieved so far. They concluded that GPUs were a viable solution.” The external experts were right. Last month, a final decision was made: the LHCb detector’s first trigger system will be powered by graphics cards when the Large Hadron Collider restarts, like Dr. Cámpora and his colleagues proposed. “It’s extremely satisfying”, he beams. “This project is really a part of me.” Early Career Scientist Award At the time Dr. Cámpora told us this story, he was unaware that things were about to get …
… learnt that vascular factors have an influence, and that lifestyle factors are associated with a lower risk of developing the disease. As a result, you see that studies are expanding and becoming more complex.” Maastricht researchers have recently started setting up a large-scale study to gather data on subjects aged between 20 and 100 years. The STRAIN study will collect not only MRI scans, but also information from blood analyses, cognitive tests, stress tests and lifestyle data. “Our goal is …

… cancerous tissue. With this method we can now precisely identify which lipids change as cancer develops and use this information to understand the molecular processes responsible for cancer progression. Ultimately this could lead to new therapies that target these chemical alterations” says M4I Assistant Professor and first author Shane Ellis. Currently, the M4I team is studying the role of lipids and the influence of subtle changes in lipid structure in a variety of biomedical studies where this …
