NWO grants awarded to four UT researchersWithin the NWO Open Competition ENW (Domain Science), four University of Twente research projects have been awarded grants of up to €50,000. The funding is intended to support promising ideas and innovative, high-risk initiatives across seven scientific disciplines within ENW. These projects are designed to push the boundaries of science, and there is no guarantee that the intended objectives will be achieved. What matters is that every outcome—whether positive or negative—contributes to scientific progress. The University of Twente researchers selected in this funding round are Ritu Gupta (TNW), Rafael Lopez Rangel (ET), Dr C. Wloka-Tjalsma (EEMCS), and Frank Röttger (EEMCS).Read more
