NWO has announced that it has decided to fund the 810 k€ collaborative project CRYO3BEAMS led by Jacob Hoogenboom (ImPhys). The project, which further involves Arjen Jakobi (BN) and industrial partners Delmic and Demcon-Kryoz, is funded within the High-Tech Systems and Materials (HTSM) Topsector call.

Jeroen Kalkman (TU Delft) and Arno van Leenders (Erasmus MC) received a grant of €10K from the Delft Health Initiative for their project on “Pathology in a new light with label-free deep tissue microscopy”. The TU Delft Health Initiative objective is to promote research in the field of Healthcare at Delft University of Technology and they granted 13 out of total 26 applications.

Verya Daeichin received a grant of €10K from the Delft Health Initiative for his project on “Single-cable three-dimensional opto-acoustic imaging catheter”. He will work on this project together with Douwe van Willigen, Martin Verweij, Michiel Pertijs and Nico de Jong. The TU Delft Health Initiative objective is to promote research in the field of Healthcare at Delft University of Technology and they granted 13 out of total 26 applications.

Koen van Dongen received a grant of €10K from the Delft Health Initiative for his project on “Real-time proton beam range verification using the iono-acoustic effect: a proof of concept”. The TU Delft Health Initiative objective is to promote research in the field of Healthcare at Delft University of Technology and they granted 13 out of total 26 applications.

During the official opening of HollandPTC on Friday 30 November, the Varian grants of € 2.700.000 were awarded. ImPhys researcher Frans Vos received € 300.000 for his project on a new methodology for developing biomarkers of radiation-induced toxicity based on advanced MR imaging. Beginning next year we expect to recruit personnel for this project.

Arnica will work on “Lab-on-a chip Raman spectroscopy for Raman spectroscopy of optically trapped bacteria and microvesicles”. Her supervisor is Jaap Caro

The Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) has announced which new research programmes may start in the so-called 'Perspective for the Top Sectors' programme. A total of six public-private programmes will receive about 28 million euros. The project is about achieving higher resolution and sensitivity in optical devices.

The Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) has announced which new research programmes may start in the so-called 'Perspective for the Top Sectors' programme. A total of six public-private programmes will receive about 28 million euros. The project is about better diagnoses of dangerous vascular problems using a new ultrasound technique.

Tomorrow, Thursday November 15th at 21:25 Mike Rijnierse's Sound Shadeswill be broadcasted on NPO TV (Dutch TV) program "Voor de Vorm". Sound Shades is a project developed during his residency at TU-Delft (Crossing Parallels). In collaboration with physicist Aurèle Adam, assistant professor at Optics TU-Delft, Rijnierse is working on pair of glasses that can change color according to any input data. At the moment he is focusing on parameters of sound to conduct the color changes and play with the viewer's perception.

To strengthen the collaboration between Imphys and Erasmus MC, Daan Brinks has accepted a zero-hour position as principal investigator in the Molecular genetics department of Erasmus starting November 15.
