COP30: 'Climate conference of truth' in Brazil? DW 11/10/2025

Two cruise ships are bobbing quietly in the specially expanded port near the city of Belem in northern Brazil on the edge of the Amazon. They will serve as alternative accommodation for more than 10,000 participants at this year's climate conference. Between 40,000 and 50,000 people, including heads of state and government from almost 200 countries, are expected to attend the 30th UN Climate Change Conference, COP30, to discuss measures for greater climate protection.

Future Innovation Awards Honors Groundbreaking Innovations

The main award went to Yvonne Lundberg Giwercman, a professor at Lund University's Faculty of Medicine, for developing a patient-specific IVF test that significantly improves fertility treatment outcomes. The test analyzes genetic data to tailor hormone therapies for individual patients-a capability that doesn't exist today. "Research shows that women receiving genetically adapted hormone therapy have a 38% higher chance of having a baby compared to those who don't," said Lundberg Giwercman. The innovation could make IVF treatments more effective and accessible for countless couples struggling with infertility.
