Automated mobility technology risks increasing transport energy consumption and could discourage active travel. However, smart design choices and effective regulation can help maximise the benefits of automation while minimising unintended impacts.
Andrea Toreti, our lead scientist for the Copernicus European and Global Drought Observatories, explains why it’s crucial to understand these events and improve their predictability. His team works to ensure that EU countries are better prepared and more resilient in the face of water-related climate extremes.
The European Cancer Information System shows that there is a steady decrease in both incidence and mortality rates for stomach cancer. This suggests that efforts to reduce the risk factors associated with stomach cancer may be paying off, along with better therapies.
Launched in 2023, the European Centre for Algorithmic Transparency supports the Digital Services Act and the AI Act through the latest scientific and technical knowledge. It also advances the understanding of how algorithmic systems work.
