Affordable & accessible diagnostic test for Rheumatoid Arthritis
Researchers from IMM, in collaboration with Novio Catalpa, have developed a novel, low-cost diagnostic test for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). This innovative solution aims to address the growing need for accessible and efficient diagnostic tools.
-
Exposome Actions Perspectives for a healthy air quality environment (ExpACT)
In this project, the team of the Life Science Trace Detection Lab (TD-Lab) received € 840,000 to develop and apply two innovative techniques for in-situ detection and monitoring of the chemical exposome in air at different length scales.
-
Colloid Synthesis
In our group, we use a wide range of particles made from different materials and with different shapes including raspberries, rods, banana-shaped particles, and dumbbells.
-
Optical Tweezing
In the Dullens Lab we can tune the properties of our colloidal particles such that we can control and manipulate both individual and groups of colloids with infrared lasers (optical tweezers) whilst combining this with simultaneous optical imaging.
-
Two-dimensional Systems
In our laboratory, we use colloidal monolayers composed of relatively large (~1-10 µm ) colloidal particles, which are strongly confined to the surface of their cell and behave as a quasi-two dimensional system.
-
Crystals and grain boundaries
In our group, we study various aspect of grain boundaries, such as their migration dynamics in terms of particle motion and dislocation dynamics.
-
Driven Systems
In our experiments, we focus on driving systems that are subject to one or more optical traps. We can drive particles through this so-called optical potential energy landscape.
-
Thermal-to-athermal systems
Using the OCULI particles developed by our group we investigate the rotational how rotational dynamics change as we cross from one realm into another.
-
Colloidal liquid crystals
Liquid crystals are a fascinating state of matter. How do particle shapes like rods and bananas form them? We use microscopy to reveal their structure and dynamics.
-
Disruptively green neuromorphic scientific computing leveraging stochasticity
We will develop algorithms for neuromorphic hardware with computational material science as a use case. This will create more fundamental knowledge on next-generation materials for neuromorphic hardware.
-
Sit with a scientist in the 'Walking park'
The ‘Walking Park’ is a pop-up park that moves to a different spot in the city center every three months. The new video series "Sit with a Scientist" is connected to the pop-up park.
-
ASTRAL: Novel technologies for data transfer
ASTRAL will exploit the exclusive ability of light to initiate ultrafast spin dynamics and will attempt to interconvert femtosecond laser pulses into large-amplitude ultrashort SW pulses.
-
Studying RNA-metabolite interactions
In Velema’s project, researchers will study how RNA interacts with small molecules in the cell, called metabolites.
-
Robot lab for Big Chemistry in the Netherlands
The interdisciplinary research programme aims to build a revolutionary robot lab that combines chemistry and artificial intelligence (AI) and that will enrich the scientific infrastructure for chemistry in the Netherlands.
-
Brain-inspired computing
In the project' Neuromorphic computational and data Science: towards disruptively green computing', IBM, SURF and Radboud University investigate how neuromorphic hardware can meet green and sustainable energy need.
