The EssentialTech programme and the new Social Impact Initiative are concrete ways in which EPFL uses tech- nology to improve development. In the same vein, the Center for Digital Trust, created last year, is more necessary than ever at a time when data protection is incredibly relevant. Last but not least, gender equality in science is another Dear alumni, decisive challenge that was widely discussed during the EPFL Alumni event The Times Higher Education recently held on International Women’s Day, on ranked EPFL as the most international 8 March.

Being recognized as a world-class tech- nological institute comes with certain responsibilities. EPFL must be exemplary, and both researchers and alumni must put their skills to good use. Jacques Dubochet, Martin Vetterli, Nobel Prize winner and President of EPFL engaged citizen, is a fan- tastic example of this. Nick Hunger 3 Alumnist Editorial E dito Contents Dear alumni, Leadership with drones, innovation in sport, digital security, life sciences and social innovation. Year after year, EPFL demonstrates its incredible ability to develop cutting-edge technologies that have a direct impact on society and enable the creation of promising startups, as you may have seen on May 2nd at the Startup Champions Seed Night. Making this happen is the fascinating work of talented researchers, entrepreneurs and leaders, many of which are alumni. Speaking of talent, we had a great illustration on March 8th for International Women’s Day. At the Rolex Learning Center, we hosted five alumnae with exemplary careers, demonstrating the role women should play in science and in the corporate world. This first annual conference will become a recurring flagship event and EPFL Alumni will continue to commit to gender equality by supporting, inspiring and equipping younger EPFL women for success. And in order to foster all the talent in our community, EPFL Alumni has launched themed career workshops. From salary negotiations, networking, job search tech- niques to radical career changes – theses workshops should provide the tools, at any given time, to help you Felix Imhof / UNIL Felix Imhof 11 reinvent yourself, promote your assets and, in particular, use your network.

EPFL and its Swiss spin-offs are emerging as global leaders in this market. 26 INNOVATION IMPROVING SPORT Sport and technologies are now smart.

The approach makes projects with a strong social impact sustainable and commercially viable. 5 Alumnist ZIG ZAG NEUROPROSTHESIS Rewiring the brain to overcome paralysis For the first time, EPFL scientists studying rats discovered that the brain has the ability to reroute specific motor commands using alternative pathways. These new brain connections, developed in regions of the nervous system that are still intact after paralysis, reconnect the brain with thespinal cord above the injury. By using alternative pathways, the brain can relearn certain complex motor tasks, such as walking. Thanks to this discovery, paraplegic rats regained control of their feet. The reco- very isn’t immediate and requires a long re-education and electrochemical stimu- lation of the spinal cord. It remains to be seen if this neuroprosthetic rehabilitation will have the same effect in humans. CHUV is currently conducting these tests on people with spinal cord injuries and results are expected by the end of the year.

  • Particle Accelerator Activities at the Paul Scherrer Institut
    PSI Bericht Nr. 17-07 December 2017 Particle Accelerator Activities at the Paul Scherrer Institut Terence GARVEY Paul Scherrer Institut, Villigen, Switzerland 5232 Division of Large Research Infrastructures Invited paper presented at Les Journées Accélérateurs de la Société Française de Physique, Roscoff, 3rd – 6th October, 2017. Resumé Les Activités Accélérateur à l’Institut Paul Scherrer. L'Institut Paul Scherrer exploite deux complexes d'accélérateurs en tant que ‘centre- serveurs’ pour une grande communauté de chercheurs. Il s'agit de l'Accélérateur de Protons à Haute Intensité (HIPA) et de la Source de Lumière Suisse (SLS). HIPA est un cyclotron à protons de 590 MeV. Il sert à produire des neutrons par spallation pour la recherche en physique de la matière condensée et à produire des muons et d'autres particules secondaires pour la recherche en magnétisme et en physique des particules. Le SLS est un anneau de stockage d’électrons de 2,4 GeV utilisé comme source de rayonnement synchrotron de 3ème génération fournissant des photons pour une large gamme de disciplines scientifiques. En plus de ces deux installations, l'Institut met progressivement en service un laser à électrons libres en rayons X (SwissFEL) qui fournira aux chercheurs des impulsions femto-seconde intenses à partir d’une ligne de rayons X ‘dur’ (ARAMIS) et de rayons X ‘mou’ (ATHOS). L'Institut exploite également un cyclotron supraconductrice à 250 MeV (COMET) aux fins de la thérapie par proton. Le centre de thérapie a récemment été équipé d'un troisième « gantry » rotatif qui est en cours de mise en service. Un « upgrade » du système de radiofréquence de HIPA et des projets pour "SLS-2" seront présentés.

  • First Operation of the Ultracold Neutron Source at the Paul Scherrer Institute
    First operation of the ultracold neutron source at the Paul Scherrer Institute The UCN source team has demonstrated excellent functioning of all major subsystems of the new facility. Ultracold neutrons have been produced for the first time from this source and under full load. The performance was found as expected under the operational conditions. The construction of the PSI source for ultracold neutrons (UCN) has been completed. The new UCN source is the second spallation target station driven by the PSI ring cyclotron and designed to take macro-pulses of up to 8s of the full proton beam intensity (590MeV, >2mA). Neutrons are thermalized in a heavy water moderator, cooled down and converted to UCN in solid deuterium. The license to start full commissioning arrived on December 16. Between December 16 and 22, the source has been operated with the aim and duty to demonstrate the principle functioning of all major subsystems. Different modes of operation have been tested starting with 5ms short pulses ramping from 100µA to 1.8mA (operational limit of the accelerator at the time of testing), followed by continuous 10µA beam for mapping of the radiation field and dose rates around the biological shielding, especially in the experimental areas, and finally going to longer pulses starting from 500µA for 2s up to 1.8mA for 8s. The test of the whole accelerator chain and beam diagnostics was very successful and the desired pulses were reliably delivered. Long intense pulses of the 1MW beam always had 5ms pilot pulses running a few seconds ahead and guaranteeing the perfect adjustment of the proton beamline.
