Vijf jaar geleden startten we vanuit TU Delta en het Science Centre het collectief TU Delft TV waarbij we studenten leerden om informatieve video’s te maken over onderzoek aan de TU. De laatste weken moest dat wat sneller vanwege de Coronacrisis. Dus ben ik zelf tijdelijk weer de regie gaan doen. Licht, geluid en montage werd door studenten verzorgd. Leuk om te doen en relevant onderzoek.

- ‘Data is the new doping’The use of data in the training of athletes has only just begun. Sensors and statistics are boosting performances. The Data Science & Sports Seminar brought people together from universities, sports and companies in a series of short updates on how data science is used in sports. The presentations fell roughly into two categories: data […]
- Smart photochip for cheaper PET-scansPET-scans can detect early tumours. A new detector module, co-developed by Dr Veerappan, makes PET-scanners cheaper, better and faster. Future patients will benefit, said Professor Edoardo Charbon. Patients with suspected tumours receive an injection of a substance that cancer cells imbibe. The simplest option is glucose for these ever-hungry cells. The injection carries an unstable […]
- Transforming materialsIn collaboration with Harvard University, two TU Delft students have built a 3-D material with controllable shape and size. Metamaterial made from extruded cubes (Photo: Bas Overvelde) Imagine a house that could fit in a backpack or a wall that could become a window with the flick of a switch. PhD student Bas Overvelde MSc […]
- From wet waste to green gasAt 600 degrees and 250 bars, supercritical water rips organic molecules apart, producing gas from wet biomass. PhD candidate Onursal Yakaboylu modelled the process. Too much manure and dwindling gas production – that sums it up for the Netherlands in 2016. A new technology called ‘supercritical water gasification of wet biomass’ has the potential to […]
