Giulia Giubertoni and Sander Woutersen receive IXA Proof-of-Concept funding
Innovation Exchange Amsterdam (IXA), the technology-transfer office of the UvA, has awarded €100,000 Proof-of-Concept funding to Dr Giulia Giubertoni and Prof. Sander Woutersen at the Van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences (HIMS). This will enable the researchers of the Molecular Photonics group to develop a new spectroscopic device capable of sizing molecules and nanoparticles, and assess its commercial potential. It will also help them to establish their spin-off company InSpectT.
