… 6 april 2023 Zoekresultaten It all started with an unexpected discovery. Bart van Grinsven, associate professor of Sensor Engineering, figured out how to detect microparticles—bacteria, toxins and proteins—in a liquid using a rapid testing method based on heat transfer. Through the startup Sensip-dx, Jaap Drenth is now turning ‘Bart’s technology’ into a commercially viable product. The testing device will be made available this year to the food industry. The discovery was more of a slow burn than a classic Eureka! moment. “It was … All you need is two thermometers and a power resistor, which is unprecedented.” Faculty of Science and Engineering Bart van Grinsven and Jaap Drenth Golden opportunity When Jaap Drenth appeared on the scene, plans for the establishment of the startup Sensip-dx were already underway. “Through the valorisation department of the Brightlands Health Campus, which commercialises new technologies, I came across this patent-protected invention with vast possibilities,” he explains. “In principle, it …

… 21 apr 16:30 Zoekresultaten Appointed professor Planetary Health " Planetary Health: the recipe for a sustainable future " The concept of Planetary Health is too human-oriented. The emphasis here is mainly on the consequences for our health through global environmental disturbances. Later definitions are already better, with the focus more on the health of our planet and the realization that human health ultimately depends on the health of the planet. For example, climate change and the decrease in biodiversity are unhealthy for the earth and everything that lives on it, including humans. However, the field of Planetary Health is more than that. It is not only the realization that everything is connected, but also the realization that it is not nearly enough to keep the planet 'as it is'. Positive, regenerative development must take place to keep the planet and …

… 28 augustus 2020 Zoekresultaten 150 unsuspecting students took part in an alternate reality game last Monday. Within 30 hours of starting their introduction to the bachelor’s programme at the Department of Data Science and Knowledge Engineering, they collectively defused a bomb and emerged as heroes. First-year students of the Data Science and Artificial Intelligence programme … Knowledge Engineering will be named Data Science and Artificial Intelligence . Through a series of online puzzles disguised as group assignments – a hallmark of the project-centred learning method of the programme – students uncovered a wild plot. 15 groups of around 10 students raced through their puzzles, collaborating within and outside of their group through Zoom, Google Docs, Whatsapp and UM’s custom-built social media platform. Release the hostage! On the second day of the faculty … that week, he failed. Both the bachelor’s and master’s students saw through his attempts in no time. If anything, the new DKE students’ ability to self-organize and effortlessly switch between online and offline communication bodes well for the start of the new academic year!

… 31 mei 2024 Series on Quantum Computing - part 1 Zoekresultaten Atoms and smaller elementary particles behave in unusual, sometimes unpredictable ways. It sounds strange, but it is this unpredictability that gives a quantum computer its power. Executing precise calculations with previously unheard-of possibilities in a way that physicists … from a tree. A closer look at the apple reveals ever-tinier components, including a seed, cells, and molecules. These components still adhere to the classical laws of nature. However, an odd thing occurs if you zoom in to the level of atoms and elementary particles: the behaviour of the particles is no longer described by the classical laws. The smallest particles appear to be treated differently by nature than the larger ones. Faculty of Science and Engineering Different behaviour "Imagine you … hole, it bounces back. If you take a smaller ball, you suddenly see different behaviour; the ball can fly through the hole." Jacco de Vries tries to explain the difference in behaviour between large and small particles. Jacco is a physicist and elementary particle researcher with the Gravitational Waves and Fundamental Physics research group. So, what is unique about the behaviour of tiny particles? Well, you can no longer accurately identify all he characteristics of the smallest particles. For …
