Aston University has been named as one of the UK’s leading lights in what is predicted to be the future of food - lab-made meat. The University is one of 17 higher education institutions that are expected to play a major role in the development of cultivated meat. Cultivated or lab-grown meat is made from cells taken from animals via biopsy. The cells are used to create meat which doesn’t involve the slaughter of animals...
TESCAN ORSAY HOLDING a.s. announces the first installation of its UniTOM XL with the new Spectral CT capability at University of Pau’s DMEX Centre for X-ray Imaging, Pau, France. Spectral CT provides chemical information at any point inside a sample, which is not possible using micro-CT alone.
