Cellular recycling takes on diabetic foot ulcers + test

Diabetic foot ulcers affect about a quarter of the more than 800 million people with diabetes worldwide. Today they are mostly cleaned and dressed, which means treating the symptoms. The EU-funded APTADEGRAD project takes a different route: its compounds remove excess inflammatory proteins from the wound by recruiting the natural recycling system inside our cells – and at the end you can check whether you have a head for biotechnology.

What can herders from 10 000 years ago teach us about climate change? + test

Heat, drought and shrinking water supplies are not just problems of our time. Herders in the Levant faced similar challenges more than 10 000 years ago. The EU-funded ICARHUS project set out to learn how they managed their herds, using a method that reads proteins preserved in ancient animal remains. It turns out that the age and sex of goats and sheep can say a lot about the climate of the past – and at the end you can find out whether there is a Stone Age herder in you.

Aircraft emissions start on the ground: how digital twins make aircraft parts last longer + test

Aviation’s environmental impact is not only about emissions in the air but also about waste: retired aircraft, expired materials and disposed parts. The EU-funded GENEX project looked for ways to make aircraft components last longer. The team combined recyclable composites, sensors feeding a digital twin and digitally assisted repairs – and at the end, you can check how well you look after your own things.

3. Talk of the town
There is a certain aura of genius attached to speaking languages. But multilingual­ism is not only the preserve of academic sand bookish linguists; plenty of European celebrities are also multilingual. Take foot­ball, a sport not traditionally associated with linguistic prowess, but which is replete with players who are fluent and articulate in several languages.
5. Make sense — structure your sentences
You may have to write (or improve) a text contain­ing a mass of facts and ideas. Here are some ways of untangling the information so that readers will understand each sentence straight away.
3. Mobility in vocational education and training (VET)
Mobility abroad can help young people in vocational education and training to gain the skills needed for today's competitive employment market.
Competence interviews
A growing number of employers are conducting competence-based (also known as structured or situational) interviews. These have proved to be very effective in predicting future job performance and are more objective than unstructured interviews.
