Research projects
-
Modeller
This NRO-funded 'knowledge for education of the future' project aims at supporting Dutch students' and teachers' modeling competence. At Radboud University, we focus on evaluating and developing pre-service teachers' modelling competence.
-
Taming frequency in Bayesian inverse wave scattering
How can we see what is hidden, and how can we distinguish its signal from noise? In this project, mathematicians develop numerical methods for high-resolution, noise-robust reconstructions using waves.
-
Find2Fix
In Find2Fix we investigate ways to improve security of software, by developing tool support to find and fix bugs that also provides explanations of this to developers.
-
INTERSECT (An Internet of Secure Things)
INTERSECT is a large national research project into security of the Internet of Things (IoT). Within the project researchers at Radboud University investigate security-by-design as well as legal and regulatory issues.
-
PPREDATOR
Given the threat of side-channel analysis (SCA), leakage assessment of a chip is very important for society. This project investigates how to efficiently predict hardware vulnerabilities during the pre-silicon manufacturing stage.
-
PROACT
The goal of PROACT is to design novel algorithms and silicon chips with inherent protection against physical attacks, and to develop novel simulation and evaluation techniques for physical security.
-
PQ-HINTS
This project will propose models to better understand how algorithm specifics influence the impact of side-channel attacks to security and provide more efficient and cheaper protection while still offering provable security guarantees.
-
ESCAPE
Post-quantum cryptosystems resist quantum attacks, but securing real-world implementations remains costly and complex.ESCAPE tackles this by integrating implementation security from the design stage, enabling faster deployment and stronger guarantees
-
PQstrong
This project supports NIST and other standardisation efforts for post-quantum digital signatures by developing new cryptanalytic methods to scrutinise proposed designs and strengthen confidence in the resulting standards.
-
ALPaQCa
The project focuses on developing new and improving existing algebraic methods for cryptanalysis of post-quantum cryptosystems.
-
WeSPO: Web Security and Privacy Observatory
The NWO Vidi Web Security and Privacy Observatory (WeSPO) project aims to serve as a warning system for privacy and security threats from malicious advertisements, digital skimming attacks and stealthy online tracking methods.
-
SHASAI
SHASAI focuses on improving the security, resilience, and trustworthiness of AI-based and high-risk systems across hardware and software.
-
CipherEngine
CipherEngine’s goal is to increase students’ interest and engagement in STEM education, particularly in the fields of cybersecurity and cryptography.
-
Pedagogical Reasoning of University Organic Chemistry Instructors
Organic Chemistry is a key challenge in STEM education. This project investigates university instructors’ pedagogical content knowledge using a literature review, a vignette-based think-aloud study, and a quantitative assessment.
-
Assessment Framework for Translatability of Animal Studies
The project aims to develop a prototype framework for assessing the translatability of preclinical animal studies to the clinic.
-
MicroSafe: Safe Climate-Resilient Engineered Water Systems
MicroSafe will make water systems safer by predicting and controlling the growth of pathogenic microbes like Legionella in cooling towers and irrigation systems in The Netherlands and Brazil.
-
Taming complex multiphysics problems for waves
This project develops mathematical methodologies for nonlinear equations modeling multiphysics interactions of acoustic waves, such as those with heat transfer and oscillating microbubbles.
-
‘From light to insight’: new sensor technology for sustainable agriculture
Photonics chips, tested and validated by Radboud University's Trace Detection Laboratory, are being further developed into an innovative photonics-based gas sensor for monitoring agricultural emissions.
-
Building on Digital Identity
In this project, we create and research trustworthy and privacy-friendly applications for identity wallets.
-
Measuring leakage from mouth-nose masks
How effective are masks at blocking virus particles? To answer this question, researchers at Radboud University are conducting research as part of the Dutch MIST (Mitigation Strategies for Controlling Airborne Infections) project.
