The production of cultured red blood cells (cRBCs) holds the promise of being a potentially unlimited source of cells that could meet the increasing demand for red blood cell transfusions.

The Netherlands Academy of Engineering (NAE) appoints 62 top experts as NAE Fellow, including professors Paulien Herder (and dean), Mark van Loosdrecht and Andrea Ramirez Ramirez of the faculty of Applied Sciences. In total, 11 of the 62 experts are employed at TU Delft. President and Rector Magnificus of the TU Delft, Tim van der Hagen, is also one of these experts.

A material that doesn't just rival the strength of diamonds and graphene, but boasts a yield strength 10 times greater than Kevlar, renowned for its use in bulletproof vests.

NASA’s GUSTO balloon observatory has arrived on Antarctica onboard the Wallops C-130 airplane. It is scheduled for launch around the 15th of December. GUSTO is equipped with three 8-pixel far-infrared cameras delivered by SRON and TU Delft and will carry out the first large-scale survey with velocity-resolved imaging of the spectral lines emitted by three cosmic elements between stars.

Quantum physicists at Delft University of Technology have shown that it’s possible to control and manipulate spin waves on a chip using superconductors for the first time. These tiny waves in magnets may offer an alternative to electronics in the future, interesting for energy-efficient information technology or connecting pieces in a quantum computer, for example.

Quantum scientists from the Ali Lab at Delft University of Technology and their collaborators from the Max Plank Institute of Microstructure Physics, University of California Santa Barbara, and others, have found proximity–induced superconductivity with strong magnetic field direction dependence and a signal of edge supercurrent inside a Kagome metal. The study, published in Science Advances, shows the promising properties of Kagome metals to investigate unconventional superconductivity and Josephson devices.

Quantum scientists from Campinas University in Brazil and the Delft University of Technology have developed an optomechanical system that uses dissipative interactions to coherently convert between microwave mechanical excitations and optical signals.
