If we would include effects on climate change and nitrogen emissions, the average meat price will increase at least 20-60 per cent, says Inge van den Bijgaart.
A new study reveals the thermal transport properties of ultrathin crystals (made of just one or a few layers) of molybdenum diselenide, a two-dimensional material of the transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) family.
Previously she was project manager for Recognition and Rewards, but since January 2022 she and Paul Boselie have been leading recognition and rewards for Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ as track leaders.
The new implementation can enable considerable improvements in countless applications that work with signals or data flows from sensors, from MRI scanners to systems that predict earthquakes.
A team of researchers from Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ and Xiamen ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ in China have now shown how to make core-shell hollow-sphered materials that combine the required functions in a single catalyst particle, enabling tandem catalysis with unsurpassed performance.
To what extent does Utrecht ľ¹Ï¸£ÀûÓ°ÊÓ's Open Science approach, in particular Recognition and Rewards, affect the way researchers publish? Join the roundtable on the 10th of February.
Serious doubt has arisen regarding the common belief that the oldest existing maps of the continent of Africa were made by Portuguese explorers in the 15th century.
Decades-old ice in Northern and Southern Pole regions contain significant amounts of nanoscale plastic particles. Studying ice cores from Greenland and Antarctica, scientists have identified several types of nanoplastic particles
Utrecht researchers have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) system that takes an important step towards designing new materials more efficiently. Based on the desired characteristics of a material, the AI system determines which building blocks are needed to make such a material.
