Transformatieve chemie voor een duurzame energietoekomst Universiteit Gent
De grondgedachte van Energy-X is om zowel de wetenschap als de technologie te ontwikkelen die een duurzame productie van synthetische brandstoffen mogelijk maken voor energieopslag en als grondstof voor de chemische en materialenindustrie. Energy-X brengt interdisciplinair academisch onderzoek (scheikunde, natuurkunde, techniek en economische wetenschap) samen met cross-industriële technologische expertise (chemie, engineering, ...
Ondernemen van dynamische zelfgeorganiseerde interfaces in fotokatalyse: een multidisciplinair trainingsnetwerk dat licht omzet in producten. KU Leuven
The global need to move current human technologies into a sustainable future will have a great impact for the world of chemistry and related industries. In close concert with other disciplines, chemistry will be increasingly solicited to identify solutions that are practical, affordable and ultimately sustainable. To meet these objectives, not only research, but also chemical education will need profound reforms that have to be contextualized ...
CARE Corona Versnelde R&D in Europa KU Leuven
The Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has emerged as the largest global health threat to humanity in this century. According to the World Health Organisation Situation Report of March 28th 2020, 571,659 patients were diagnosed with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) and 26,493 deaths were reported globally. The wide spectrum of clinical symptoms, disease severity in high risk individuals, transmission ...
Schellings filosofie van de natuur en de milieu-uitdaging KU Leuven
The contemporary environmental crisis has triggered a revival of discussions on the concept of nature. Among scientists, philosophers, policy makers and citizens questions regarding environmental practices and the overall state of nature have become a matter of central concern. But what exactly is nature beyond the specific phenomena studied by specialized natural sciences, such as physics, chemistry or biology? Is there something else beyond ...
NAIL adsorptie en dynamica van nucleïnezuren op oppervlakken in ionische vloeistofomgeving. KU Leuven
Nucleic acid storage and stability is of primary importance as it finds uses in material science as nanomachines, biosensors and bioelectronics. The long-term stability and storage of DNA is a major challenge as hydrolytic reactions cause its denaturation when stored in an aqueous environment with conventional buffer solutions. Most of the devices employing nucleic acids require the nucleic acid molecule (generally DNA) to be adsorbed on the ...
Ontwikkeling van een kunstmatig informatiesysteem KU Leuven
Artificial genetic sequences have become an important tool for the development of new therapeutics but may also define a trait of technological innovation. The possibility to synthesize genes, plasmids and chromosomes combined with the possibilities of directed mutagenesis and genetically reprogramming organisms and directing their evolution will become a crucial issue in synthetic biology. The uniformity of genetic alphabets, the ...
Bevordering van sociale interactie door emotionele lichaamsgeuren KU Leuven
The way chemistry influences human communication is one of the most intriguing and debated topics. More specifically, the nature of chemosignals and their sphere of influence on social interaction is a very important key to understanding human behaviour. POTION proposes a novel technological paradigm to delve deeper into understanding meaningful social interaction, combining new knowledge about the chemical composition of human social ...
