From solar energy beamed from space to genetic brain maps and live self-repairing bridges, research in 2025 is promising. And we may see more changes that make cities greener and cleaner. By Anthony KingWhoever thinks research is not exciting might be in for a surprise. In 2025, we could witness genetic decoding of the human brain, collect solar energy in space, and walk across a bridge built of electronically controlled fungi.

Whoever thinks research is not exciting might be in for a surprise. In 2025, we could witness genetic decoding of the human brain, collect solar energy in space, and walk across a bridge built of electronically controlled fungi. Cracking the brain’s genetics with AI’s help Detailed maps of the human brain drawn up by the EU-funded Human Brain Project are ready for prime time and should start to come into their own in 2025.

Sometimes a seemingly minor discovery in science can snowball into something huge. So it was with Professor Michael Hall’s investigations into a compound called rapamycin, originally discovered in a handful of soil from Easter Island in the southern Pacific. In 2024, he was awarded the Balzan Prize for “groundbreaking contributions” to our understanding of the molecular mechanisms that regulate cell growth and ageing.

Graphene has lived up to its promise in the lab. Now, EU-funded researchers are working on supporting its wider adoption in high-end electronics, photonics and sensors. By Anthony KingDr Inge Asselberghs has been closely involved in advanced graphene research over the past decade. Today, she’s at the forefront of EU-funded efforts to bring this “miracle material” out of the lab and into society.
