Ahmed B. Ayoub joined ImPhys per February 1st as postdoctoral researcher. He will work on super-resolution microscopy under supervision of Prof. Sjoerd Stallinga.

Mohammad joined ImPhys as a PhD student in the European doctorate program enabling the next generation of computational physicists and engineers (ENGAGE). He is working under the supervision of Dr. Eric Verschuur.

Freek Pols published a frontline article: Collaborative data collection: shifting focus on meaning making during practical work. In this paper he presents, together with a high school teacher, an approach to practical work in which data collection is minimized freeing time for the more cognitive demanding tasks such as data-analysis and drawing conclusions.

Freek Pols organized the NNV Landelijke practicumdag: An event for and by university physics lab course teachers. It was a great success with 40 people from 12 different institutes from the Netherlands.

Natuurkundige David Maresca heeft een Chan Zuckerberg Initiative Dynamic Imaging-subsidie gekregen om een instrument voor de volgende generatie medische echoscopie te ontwikkelen. De huidige echoscopie, bij de meesten bekend als de eerste foto van een baby, kan onze anatomie en organen zichtbaar maken. Het nieuwe instrument zal veel verder kunnen inzoomen, tot op het niveau van de cellen in ons lichaam.

Following in the footsteps of Antoni Van Leeuwenhoek and his groundbreaking microscope, Bernd Rieger and Sjoerd Stallinga unlocked the current world of microscopy, and showed us which innovations led us there, at the 181st birthday of TU Delft.

On January 17th Freek Pols successfully defended his PhD thesis on "Development of a teaching-learning sequence for scientific inquiry through argumentation in secondary physics education".

Aurèle Adam, Assistant Professor at ImPhys and Programme Director of the Applied Physics Master’s, has received this year’s Westerdijk Prize. Timon Idema presented the prize to the physicist for his great commitment to and passion for teaching.

Yi will be studying inductive bias induced by the nature of imaging physics for medical image analysis by deep learning under supervision of Dr. Qian Tao

The RADIOBLOCKS project, coordinated by JIVE ERIC and including major European research infrastructures for radio astronomy, together with partners from industry and academia, have been granted 10 M€ by the European Commission to develop “common building blocks” for technological solutions beyond state-of-the-art, that will enable a broad range of new science and enhance European scientific competitiveness. The RADIOBLOCKS project will start on 1 March 2023.
