3. Synchrotron-based characterization of mechanobiological effects on the nanoscale in musculoskeletal tissues
Abstract : Collagen is the main organic building block of musculoskeletal tissues. Despite collagen being their smallest load bearing unit, these tissues differ significantly in mechanical function and properties. A major factor behind these differences is their hierarchical organization, from the collagen molecule up to the organ scale. READ MORE

5. Nanoscale structure forming processes : Metal thin films grown far-from-equilibrium
Abstract : Thin film growth from the vapor phase has for a long time intrigued researchers endeavouring to unravel and understand atomistic surface processes that govern film formation. Their motivation has not been purely scientific, but also driven by numerous applications where this understanding is paramount to knowledge-based design of novel film materials with tailored properties.
