The ݮƵ Institute for Nanotechnology(WIN)at the University of ݮƵ (UݮƵ)andthe economic development agency of Brainport Eindhovenin the Netherlands have taken another step towardsbringing ݮƵ’s top nanotechnology innovations to the EU market.
What is nanotechnology, and how does it help us everyday?
To answer this question, the ݮƵ Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) partnered with the Games Institute (GI) to create a playful online education app. This project aims to explore and explain how nanotechnology is used in our everyday lives using digital visual storytelling and game technology.
Aging is a disease that can be fought with the appropriate combinations of supplements and behaviours, according to new research from the University of ݮƵ.
Using a comprehensive mathematical model, the researchers also found that the best time of day for someone to take these supplements depends on their age. Some anti-aging supplements should be taken by young people at night, while older people should take it midday for the greatest effectiveness.
Seeing is believing when it comes to diversity in academia, according to the inaugural director of the newIndigenous and Black Engineering Technology (IBET) PhD Project.
Congratulations to WIN memberProfessor Graham Murphyof theDepartment of Chemistry, who was awarded theby the Canadian Society for Chemistry (CSC). The award, sponsored by the University of Ottawa and the CSC’s Organic Chemistry Division, is presented to a distinguished organic chemist in Canada within 12 years of receiving their PhD.
Congratulations to WIN member Jean Duhamel, ProfessorintheDepartment of Chemistry, who was awarded the 2021 Macromolecular Science and Engineering Award by the. The award is presented to an individual who “has made a distinguished contribution to macromolecular science or engineering.
You would rarely hear anyone say “game-changing” in the typically “conservative” construction industry. But thanks to the nanocomposite technology developed by , this is precisely what is happening. They are working closely with Professor Beth Weckmanwho is a member ofthe ݮƵ Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) at the University of ݮƵ. Gypsum drywalls became mainstream in construction materials about 80 years ago, and it is now a massive sector.
The Materials Research Society(MRS) presented ݮƵ chemist, and WIN member, Linda Nazar with theڴǰ“outstanding contributions to advanced materials design, synthesis and characterization for energy storage, particularly Li battery technologies.”
A WIN member andelectrical and computer engineering professor has been named a(EIC), the country’s longest-standing engineering society.
As the first doses of the, researchers in ݮƵ Region are trying to design a needle-free option.
The work is still in the pre-clinical stage and their efforts are highlighting the University of ݮƵ's dedication to fighting the pandemic.
