Bettering nature’s approach
Electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 is a promising approach to offset carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. In this project, Roithova's team studied how the 3D architecture of catalysts affects the conversion of CO2 to cleaner substances.
-
RNA Sequencing of the Neuromuscular Junction in FUS-associated ALS
The project's goal is to gain a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms that underlie neuromuscular junction defects in ALS in order to identify potential therapeutic targets.
-
Future Dikes
The Future Dikes project investigates how we can strengthen the Dutch dikes with a species-rich grass covering.
-
ProMiSe
In the multidisciplinary ProMiSe project, researchers intend to make a blueprint for how the integration of neurobiological and clinical knowledge can lead to improvement of care for patients with rare genetic syndromes.

What is the influence of cable temperature on the possible load of the electricity network?
What is the influence of temperature (think of heat pumps and airconditioning) on the possible load on the electricity network?
-
WildlifeNL
WildlifeNL is dedicated to the search for new forms of wildlife management. The goal is to develop new technologies, governance arrangements and communication strategies, to enable a low-conflict coexistence of humans and wildlife.
-
CorneaRegID
Current treatments for cornea damage depend on stem cells in the patient's own healthy eye. This project will develop a novel regenerative technology to convert patient's skin and mouth cells into cornea stem cells to restore vision.
-
Implicit Complexity through Higher Order Rewriting (ICHOR)
The goal of ICHOR is to study computational complexity of and using higher-order term rewriting systems. Our particular focus is to develop methods that involve algebra interpretations.
-
BRAINCHAIN
BRAINCHAIN aims to establish personalised treatment strategies for patients with genetic neurodevelopmental disorders. Our campus-based multidisciplinary team takes an integrative approach to go from molecule to brain and person to society.
-
On the Move: Transition towards Sustainable Mobility
The negative effects of spatial mobility (e.g. congestion, unsafety, fossil fuel use and land use), create a strong pressure to transition towards a more sustainable mobility system. This asks for trend-breaking change strategies.
-
Prevention and Health
The Prevention and Health project of Radboud University and Radboudumc aims to find out how health differences between citizens can be reduced.
-
Focused Ultrasound Initiative
This project aims to facilitate scientific breakthroughs and the development of clinical applications on focused ultrasound stimulation. We will centralize and share hands-on and technical knowledge and purchase shared equipment.
-
BlackGEM telescope array
When neutron stars and black holes collide, gravitational waves are released and a hot luminous ring of gas is created. BlackGEM is a series of telescopes that helps researchers to more accurately determine where a collision has occurred.
-
MAGALOPS
Researchers from the MAGALOPS research project will measure the Milky Way’s magnetic field by using the optical polarisation of starlight. The final model will help in understanding the interplay between the magnetic field, gas and dust.
-
Living Lab Ooijpolder
In recent years, scientists have experimented with innovative forms of biodiversity restoration in the Ooijpolder in Gelderland. The Living Lab looks at how the existing pilot schemes and initiatives have improved biodiversity in this region.
-
Prioritisation and Risk Evaluation of Medicines in the EnviRonment (PREMIER)
Pharmaceutical residue can cause environmental damage. Much of the medicines that we use are released into the sewer via excretion. That is why a European research consortium is developing a system that analyses the environmental risks of medicines.
-
Quantifying electron-electron forces at the atomic scale
In this project, researchers will investigate novel correlated electron phases in 2D materials. These phases exhibit unusual superconducting or magnetic behaviour and a better understanding of the role of electron interactions is needed. The research
