With the detection of the high-energy cosmic neutrino flux in the TeV-PeV energy range, IceCube has opened a new window to our universe, neutrino astronomy.

Tensor C*-categories are categories with a monoidal structure and a compatible operator algebra structure on their endomorphism spaces. One instance of a tensor C*-category is obtained by considering the category of finite dimensional representations of a compact group.

The research team investigates mathematical structures that are important in the study of the Yang-Baxter equation (YBE). Although the YBE has its origin in physics, it is now a fundamental mathematical object.

The Cosmopolis Centre for Urban Research is a research group within the Department of Geography of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel and is dedicated to research and teaching in interdisciplinary urban studies, with particular strengths in geography, spatial planning and urban design.

Artisan bakery sourdoughs are characterized by a typical microbiota, often determined by the house microbiota, the flour and/or ingredients used, as well as the process conditions applied.

Industrial-scale microbial production of biochemicals and -fuels offers a sustainable alternative to the current petrochemical processes.

Temperature is a crucial physical parameter for all living organisms. The ability to respond adequately to a temperature rise or drop underlies the survival and fitness of a species.

Roughly a third of the earth’s land is degraded. Human activities including industry and overcultivation resulted in marginal soils. These soils are unbalanced in nutrients and often polluted with heavy metals.

The advent of atomic force microscopy (AFM) nanoimaging techniques heralded a new era for imaging and analysis of biomolecules and cells.

The existence of life in extraterrestrial environments is currently one of the most intriguing scientific questions.
