All machine translators have their limitations. The translations are not perfect by any means, but they are suitable tools for providing help on more than one occasion. The UPV/EHU’s IXA Group has recently secured a European project to overcome these limitations and to go on conducting research into machine translation: QTLeap.

EU-funded research has revealed how nutrition in the womb and during our early years could affect our susceptibility to obesity, diabetes, heart disease, chronic lung disease, as well as lifelong behavioural and cognitive functions. These findings from the EARNEST ('Early nutrition programming') project have now been translated into practical advice, which could have a long-term beneficial impact on the health of Europe's next generation.
