A short Introduction to the Nano2Hybrid European Research Project. A video profiling a nanotechnology research project supported by a European Materials Research grant aims to produce a tiny gas sensor using nanotubes that have been developed to be s....

The Namur group are heading up the nano2hybrids project. They are the specialists in plasma treatment of the carbon nanotubes to activate their surfaces, followed by putting down metal nanoparticles under vacuum. These are then sent to Spain to be ma....

The Louvain-la-Neuve group are specialised in theoretical modelling at the atomic scale of the metal nanoparticles on the carbon nanotube surfaces, and in particular how electronic charge passes through the tubes in this case.

The ULB partner in the project are specialised in plasma surface treatment under air, rather than vacuum - it's the next step up in scaling up the plasma treatment of the nanotubes after the Namur group. In the earlier stages of the project they are ....

The Tarragona Group at University Rovira i Virgili are the experts in producing new prototype gas sensors. All the new metal particle treated nanotube samples from Belgium and Luxembourg make their way down to this beautiful corner of Spain, where th....

Hydrogen - the fuel of the future?

'If you knew Time as well as I do,’ the Mad Hatter says to Alice, ‘you wouldn’t talk about wasting it. It’s him.’ In this event, three writers well-acquainted with time discuss how it (or he) both controls and captivates us.  Dame Gillian ....

What is antimatter? What does it tell us about the structure of our universe? Can we ever detect it?

There have been many arguments for and against GM Foods, but the question still stands - are they potential saviors of mankind or a disaster waiting to happen? This award winning video covers a range of important issues, discussed by scientists with ....

The art work shown in this film emerged from a closed interactive-style experiential art group. The women were active in the production of collective knowledge, as well as active in interrogating their own, very particular, feelings about the process....

Using microorganisms to clear pollution.

Why is cloning such hot science? What are the potential benefits? And are there other ways of achieving them? What are stem cells, and why do many scientists say that embryonic cells are required for this work?
