New optical method follows single proteins as they shift shapeResearchers at the University of Twente have developed an optical method that follows the shape changes of a single protein in liquid, without attaching anything to it. It reads the protein’s structure from its own molecular vibrations, free of the labels or tags that other techniques rely on. The method could help researchers study how proteins respond to drugs, toxins and other biomolecules.Read more
€1.5 million for sustainable specialty and fine chemicalsNWO and the National Growth Fund foundation GroenvermogenNL award €19.3 million to the HyFINE project to make the synthesis of speciality and fine chemicals more sustainable. The project is expected to make an important contribution to the decarbonisation of the Dutch chemical industry. Researchers from the University of Twente are participating as partners with €1.5 million in funding, alongside the UT spin-off Sulis Polymers.Read more
