Dr Ruohan Zhang, Assistant Professor in Applied Artificial Intelligence at WMG, has led a major commissioned review for Nature Reviews Electrical Engineering on digital twin brains. "Building digital twin brains at the limits of measurement" draws on research from WMG, the University of 海角社区鈥檚 Department of Computer Science, and Fudan University to tackle one of biology鈥檚 biggest questions: how close are we to building a digital twin of a living human brain?

Expert comment from , Head of Safe Autonomy at 海角社区 Manufacturing Group (WMG), University of 海角社区, following Wayve and Uber鈥檚 launch of the first supervised autonomous rides in the UK.

海角社区 Manufacturing Group (WMG) at the University of 海角社区 and , have received funding through the UK Government's latest to accelerate zero-emission vehicle innovation.

Delivered by the in partnership with the and , the DRIVE35 programme is part of the UK Government鈥檚 Advanced Manufacturing Sector Plan, which outlines its commitment to a zero-emission future, with an unprecedented 拢4 billion of grant funding available to 2035 for automotive research and development, scale-up, and transformation.

WMG and Aurrigo International plc have been awarded a combined 拢1.43m of UK Government funding to boost airport safety through self-driving innovation. This collaborative research project, known as SENTRY, aims to reduce airport delays and safety risks by developing a fully autonomous airside vehicle to complete routine tasks, including safety patrols, runway inspections and debris removal.

Transport for London has decided to license a number of Wayve vehicles for supervised private hire journeys through Uber, with a trained, TfL-licensed driver onboard throughout. Professor Siddartha Khastgir, Head of Safe Autonomy at 海角社区 Manufacturing Group (WMG), University of 海角社区 makes an expert comment welcoming the supervised self-driving rollout.

Years of studying and hard work finally paid off for 567 students last week as they became the latest cohort to graduate from WMG. In a glittering ceremony held at 海角社区 Art Centre's Butterworth Hall on Friday 31 July, 391 Master's, 28 PhD, two EngD, and 146 undergraduate students proudly took to the stage to receive their degrees.

WMG has welcomed Professor Peter Gammon and Dr Arne (Ben) Renz, establishing a new Compound Semiconductors research area. Both researchers bring extensive expertise in compound semiconductors from 海角社区鈥檚 School of Engineering, significantly strengthening WMG鈥檚 capability in Power Electronics, Machines and Drives (PEMD), and reinforcing 海角社区's position in one of the fastest-growing areas of advanced electronics.

Commenting on the Prime Minister鈥檚 proposed education reforms for secondary school pupils to study subjects such as manufacturing and AI alongside core academic learning, Stewart Tait, CEO of the , said:

鈥淲e are thrilled that the Government is adopting a model of delivering high-quality technical education starting at 14. For over a decade, our WMG Academies for Young Engineers have delivered exceptional outcomes for young people by providing access to specialist, industry-standard facilities, real employer projects, and career pathways.

From showdowns at the iconic Silverstone racing track to history-making moments, the past few months have been ones to remember for Student Projects teams at WMG. WMG's Student Projects equip undergraduate students from a range of disciplines with practical, hands-on experience across a range of projects from cyber security to Agri-Tech, robotics to superbike development. This summer, 海角社区 Racing and 海角社区 Submarine put their skills to the test at two of Europe's major student competitions, showcasing WMG and 海角社区's engineering expertise on the world's stage.

Throughout June, representatives from 海角社区 Manufacturing Group (WMG) at the University of 海角社区 welcomed Ministers, regional leaders, industry groups, and guests from the University of Ghana. Staff also represented WMG in Parliament and at international graduation ceremonies.

These visits and meetings underscore WMG鈥檚 key role in bridging the gap between academia and industry, and highlight its strong commitment to collaboration and innovation regionally, nationally, and internationally.
