• To compete globally, Europe’s seafood farmers may get boost from AI research

  In the global seafood market, European aquaculture could expect a boost from AI solutions developed by researchers at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm.

• QS ranks KTH 74th worldwide

  KTH Royal Institute of Technology’s was ranked 74th among 1,500 universities worldwide in the 2025 QS World University Rankings released today. Nearly unchanged from last year, the ranking places KTH 10th among universities in the European Union and highest among universities in Sweden.

• Leading academics call for extending, reframing Sustainable Development Goals

  A group of leading academics are calling for the UN Sustainable Development Goals to be extended past their 2030 target date and updated. In a paper led by KTH Associate Professor Francesco Fuso-Nerini, the researchers say the SDGs need to consider the impact of artificial intelligence (AI), and include more input from communities affected by the goals, among other recommendations.

• Climate is one culprit in spread and growth of Middle East dust levels

  Climate change is transforming dust storms—a natural phenomenon in the Middle East—into a more frequent and widespread threat to health and economies throughout the region, a new study shows.

• 3D microprinter hacked to fabricate transistors for bioelectronics

  The speed of innovation in bioelectronics and critical sensors gets a new boost with the unveiling of a technique for fast-prototyping of devices.

• Study on ship sliming suggests way to reduce costs in ocean transport

  Slime build-up is a costly drag on fuel efficiency for ocean-going cargo ships, leading to more emissions and, eventually, higher consumer prices. A recent study, however, suggests a new approach to managing this common problem.

• Clean fusion energy: important step forward in efforts to stabilise plasma

  KTH has, in collaboration with Novatron Fusion Group (NFG), reached an exciting milestone in a fast-moving clean fusion energy project. After months of preparation, the research team has recently successfully managed to perform the first ionization tests with hydrogen plasma.

• Alternative to studded winter tires reduces airborne particles by 20 percent

  On icy roads, studded winter tires can save lives – but they pulverize pavement and fill the air with dangerous, inhalable particles. A new study shows that both road wear and airborne particles could be reduced by as much as 20 percent if studs were made instead with an alternative hard metal.

• As Scandinavian peninsula rises from sea, new satellite data shows gravity changes

  Bouncing back from under the weight of Ice Age glaciers which have long since vanished, the Nordic region land mass is slowly rising above sea level. Two scientists at KTH Royal Institute of Technology have refined a method for measuring and predicting the small details of how this slow movement changes Earth’s gravitational pull over time.

• AI on aircraft can reduce risk of mid-air stalls and sudden drops

  Artificial intelligence aboard aircraft could help prevent mid-air stalls and terrifying drops in altitude. In a new study, an international research team successfully tested a machine learning system for preventing trouble with turbulence.

• AI helps decode horse body language for better veterinary care

  Researchers are using AI to bridge the communication gap between horse and human. Combining 3D motion capture and machine learning, a new modeling system would equip veterinarians with a powerful visual tool for interpreting equine body language—the key to detecting physical and even behavioral problems.
