“THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW”

During this dual internship, I will be involved in the PIONEER project (PhotoactIve OrgaNic polymErs for watER treatment). It has been demonstrated that through light irradiation, BTI (benzothioxanthene imide) in water generates hydroxyl radicals (OH•), with their recombination product being hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Hydrogen peroxide serves an antifouling function due to its compatibility with living […]

To understand how well a city’s socio-economic and natural systems are functioning, destinations around the world utilize indicators to measure and report on sustainability stewardship. Global Destination Movement put forth an international benchmarking framework (GDS Index) to evaluate a destinations’ sustainability performance. Sustainability is measured across 77 indicators within four categories (social, environmental, supplier and […]

In rheumatoid arthritis care, patients face long waits and frequent appointments. Using a patient-initiated follow-up model can help patients avoid unnecessary appointments and reduce wait times, but this only works if patients have enough support to manage their disease. Physical activity is essential for managing RA, but many people with RA do not have enough […]

The quantum internet is predicted to have a substantial impact on our modern society, enabling the transfer of information through networks (so-called quantum networks) with unprecedented security compared to our current, classical protocols. Although small-scale, proof-of-principle quantum network experiments using photons (quanta of light) have already shown great promise, the scaling of these experiments into […]

Amid the ongoing climate crisis, there’s a surging demand for initiatives that prioritize climate action. Communities are seeking solutions to their environmental challenges that not only allow them to adapt and thrive but also position them as catalysts for change. Non-profit organizations, such as the Biosphere Institute of Bow Valley, play a pivotal role in […]

The project is on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of Flame Retardant Textile used for the Production of Occupational Safety Clothing with focus on the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Industry, and the results of the research will provide data for the partner company to be able to provide information and guidance at different steps in the […]

This project, a collaborative effort between TU Munich and the University of Calgary, aims to use an innovative electrotactile tongue display system for robotic teleoperation in surgery. In robotic-assisted surgeries, surgeons lack the direct ‘touch’ feedback that traditional surgery offers, often leading to a reliance on visual cues for force application. This gap can affect […]
