It is our pleasure to invite you to our MaCSBio Science Day 2023. The theme of this year’s meeting is: Creating optimal models: constraints and opportunities.

Einstein Telescope - prospects of building a billion-Euro-class research Infrastructure in Limburg? Unravvelling the mysteries of the dark side of the universe with the Einstein Telescope.

The decoding of higher order cognition directly from recordings of neural activity in the brain could enable a new generation of prosthetic devices.

This edition of the Forum is focused on PhD projects from some of the departments involved in this Forum.

The brain consumes an inordinate amount of energy with respect to its weight and understanding brain energy metabolism is crucial. Prof Renaud Jolivet will explain why this is crucial and go more in-depth on how to design models of brain energy metabolism and more.

During the fourth edition of the Dutch Agri Food Week The Netherlands will evolve around the future of our food. Visitors will get answers to the question: ‘what are we eating now, and what will be eating in 2050?’

The workshop aims to create a multidisciplinary platform to address how metabolic modelling can answer important scientific questions and contribute to applications in disease, nutrition, and drug metabolism and what needs to be done to achieve this.

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a non-invasive technique that allows the measurement of multiple metabolites in the brain in vivo at the same time.

Nobel-prize winner Kip Thorne has co-written the script for this blockbuster, so we can expect that the physics of the script is 100% truthful, right? Before and after the movie a UM-professor will give you the answers.
