Both undergraduate and graduate students and post-doctoral researchers really enjoyed the interactive philosophical lectures based on the inspiring topics for the students from different fields.
2. Erasmus+ programme at the Bio-Nano Electronics Research Centre, Toyo University, from 7th to 17th October 2018
Dr Iosif Hulka, post-doctoral researcher, Politehnica University of Timisoara, had a special training on “Transmission electron microscopes” at the Bio-Nano Electronics Research Centre, Toyo University, focusing on the following subjects. We hope that the training will lead to the progress of materials science research carried at the Politehnica University of Timisoara and future collaborative research on nanoscience/nanotechnology.
1. TEM investigation techniques (HR-TEM, STEM)
2. Diffraction on TEM
3. EDX elemental analysis and mapping
4. Iron containing carbon onions and magnetic carbon nanostructures/nanotubes TEM investigation and sample preparation for TEM
3. Erasmus+ programme at the Politehnica University of Timisoara, Romania, from 9th to 20th September 2018
Dr Hisao Morimoto, the Deputy-Director of the Bio-Nano Electronics Research Centre and Professor of the Graduate School of Interdisciplinary New Science and the Department of Mechanical Engineering, and Mr Ippei Nio, the Chief of the Research Promotion Office, carried out the “Erasmus+ Programme” at the Politehnica University of Timosoara.
Professor Morimoto gave lectures on “Nanotechnology and nanomaterials” for a total of 16 hours to researchers and students of the Politehnica University of Timosoara. He particularly focused on magnetic nanoparticles and their application to biomedical studies.
1. Introduction: Properties of nano/micro-structures
2. Activation of enzymes utilising magnetic particles
3. Magnetic nano/micro-particles
4. Self-organisation of magnetic nano/micro-particles
5. Fractal characteristics of self-organised patterns formed by magnetic particles
6. Numerical methods for analysing the structure formation and dynamics of magnetic particles
7. Biological and biomedical applications of magnetic particles
“EU: Erasmus+ programmes” in Japan and Romania | Toyo University
Mr Nio actively discussed the administrative systems in EU with several staff members of the Politehnica University of Timosoara to support international research and educational programmes organised by Toyo University and universities in EU.
