Blog European plaice: a new food source in Norway? Sometimes you don’t have to look that far to find a healthy and delicious new food option. Innovation Digital design of aluminium – from particles to products Marcos Fernandez’s research brings us closer to that day when physical tests become history. His efforts also pave the way for safer cars, planes, ships, and other structures. Research NTNUs first research satellite on the first mission in the Arctic The small satellite HYPSO-1, built by more than 80 students and researchers at the Department of Engineering Cybernetics and the Department of Electronic Systems – and other departments, has participated in several research missions already. Blog You can actually see the atoms in 3D: Q&A with Paraskevas Kontis Paraskevas (Paris) Kontis joined NTNU in September 2021 as Associate Professor in Materials Science and Engineering. His work focuses on the relationship between materials’ properties and chemistry at the atomic level. Here, he speaks with NTNU Nano science writer Kelly Oakes about his current research and plans for the future. Research New Horizon Europe project funded, led by NTNU NTNU and 8 partners have been awarded the project “BIAS: Mitigating Diversity Biases in the Labor Market,” a large €4.7M, Horizon Europe grant coordinated by Dr. Roger A. Søraa at the Department of Interdisciplinary Studies of Culture at the Humanities Faculty. NTNU’s Departments of Computer Science and Social Anthropology are also part of the project. Blog Making heat pumps hotter to reduce CO2 emissions Food processing, battery production and other industriall processes all demand heating and cooling at the same time. Improving high temperature heat pumps will reduce both energy use and CO2 emissions for these and other industrial processes, and the objective of my PhD is to develop a prototype of such a “hot” heat pump. Research ERC grant to Ellingsen to better understand the climate on earth Professor Simen A. Å. Ellingsen has been awarded the prestigious ERC Consolidator Grant from the European Research Council ERC. He will investigate how ocean waves mix surface water into the deep, something that can improve climate simulations.
