Cross Talks #8 MAGAL Constellation

Cross Talks #11 - NanoCatRed

In our eleventh episode, Salomé Soares (Assistant Researcher at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto), Sérgio Silva (Founder & CEO of ADVENTECH) and Simon Humphrey (Professor at the UT Austin’s College of Natural Sciences) shared more about their project called NanoCatRed. The group is developing nanoparticles that break down harmful inorganic contaminants, from water. Through a chemical reaction, these nanoparticles generate harmless products, thus reducing the health risks that inorganic contaminants impose on humans and the environment.

Cross Talks #10 - uPGRADE

In our tenth episode, we talked with Tiago Hormigo (Head of Space Business Development at Spin.Works S.A) and Chaoyang Zhang (Postdoctoral researcher at UT Austin) about their project upGRADE. Through this episode, you will learn how they are developing a satellite prototype the size of a shoe box that can evaluate sea level changes through gravity acceleration.

Cross Talks #9 - Soft4Sense

In our ninth episode, we talked with Bruno Martins, Carlos Patacas (Researchers at Instituto Pedro Nunes) and Rui Huang (Professor at the University of Texas at Austin’s Cockrell School of Engineering) about their project Soft4Sense. The three researchers explain how they are creating smart surfaces to monitor thin film layers deposition and become part of the Industry 4.0.

Cross Talks #8 MAGAL Constellation

In our eighth episode, we talked with Arlindo Marques, Clara Lázaro, Paulo Figueiredo and Brandon Jones about their project MAGAL Constellation. Together, they explained how one of the biggest consortia is using small satellites to study ocean level variations and climate change.
