Two Leiden University research teams have been awarded grants through the HTSM programme, supporting advanced technology development with strong industry collaborations.
DUAL IMPACT, led by Prof. Joost Batenburg (LIACS), aims to transform quality control in industries like food processing and energy by combining detailed 3D imaging with fast, efficient scanning methods.
CLEAR-water, led by Prof. Thijs van Osch, develops new MRI techniques that eliminate the use of gadolinium-based contrast agents, reducing environmental impact while maintaining diagnostic accuracy.
Both projects involve partnerships with industry and research institutes, strengthening Leiden’s position as a hub for innovative high-tech research.
