1. Design of Hospital Operating Room Ventilation using Computational Fluid Dynamics
Abstract : The history of surgery is nearly as old as the human race. Control of wound infection has always been an essential part of any surgical procedure, and is still an important challenge in hospital operating rooms today. For patients undergoing surgery there is always a risk that they will develop some kind of postoperative complication. READ MORE

2. Dynamics of root microorganisms in closed hydroponic cropping systems
Abstract : Greenhouse production of vegetables in closed hydroponic cropping systems is a resource-efficient technique for the production of high-quality produce with a high yield per unit area. While this type of cropping system allows savings in terms of water and nutrient use, the recirculation of water increases the risk of pathogen dispersal. READ MORE

3. Pharmacometric Models to Improve the Treatment and Development of Drugs against Tuberculosis
Abstract : With 10 million new infections yearly, tuberculosis has a major impact on the human well-being of the world. Most patients have infections susceptible to a first-line treatment with a treatment success rate of 80%, a number that can potentially be improved by optimising the first-line treatment. READ MORE

4. Bioprocess development for biochemical conversion of lignocellulose
Abstract : Due to its low environmental impact and high maturity of the fuel ethanol market, lignocellulosic ethanol is a promising option for reducing the carbon footprint in the transport sector. The characteristics of lignocellulosic feedstocks, such as varied sugar composition, low sugar density, low solubility, recalcitrance to enzymatic degradation, and inhibitors formed during thermochemical pretreatment, have so far limited the production process, and costs for conversion of lignocellulosic materials to ethanol are still high.
