A New Understanding of the Non-classical Electrostriction Mechanism. Electrostriction is the reversible mechanical deformation of a material under an external electric field and developed in all materials. Unfortunately, the best-performing electrostrictive compounds contain lead, which is highly toxic. Moreover, a very recently a new family of electrostrictive material is discovered, i.e., highly oxygen defective cerium oxides, consists of a large amount of oxygen vacancy in the lattice. Since ceria is an eco-friendly,
AcouSort and Consortium universities: collaboration as the key of innovation.
The partnership and co-creation between AcouSort and the BioWings'Consortium universities. Ten years ago, AcouSort was spun off from a collaboration between Lund University groups about how to find cells of interest, such as stem cells and cancer cells, in clinical samples using ultrasound. AcouSort has ever since been collaborating closely with research groups there and elsewhere, resulting in several products, patents and publications. When the BioWings project was drafted, AcouSort was

EIC Pathfinder Pilot: let’s discover the FET Open and the FET Proactive programmes
A focus on Europe’s innovation future As you know, BioWings is a project funded by the European Commission in the Horizon 2020 framework, under the Future Emerging Technologies (FET) Open programme. The mission of Future and Emerging Technologies is to turn Europe's excellent science base into a competitive advantage. FET OPEN FET Open funds and supports early-stage, science and technology research by consortia exploring novel ideas for radically new future technologies that challenge current
Coronavirus: What EU can do (and has already done)
The European Commission has since the outbreak tasked itself to soften the blow of the Covid-19 pandemic on public health and the economy. The Coronavirus Covid-19 outbreak turned our daily life upside-down. Despite difficulties, the European Commission and all the EU Organizations (in general) set out plans for a robust and targeted EU response to support partner countries' efforts in tackling the coronavirus pandemic. The EU's collective action will focus on addressing
