Current Projects

Please find below the current Research and Innovation Action in which B-PHOT is strongly involved in most cases as coordinator.

ACTPHAST4R (2019-2022)

Accelerating Photonics deployment via one stop shop advanced technology access for Researchers

ACTPHAST 4.0 (2017-2021)

Accelerating Photonics innovation for SME’s: a one stop-shop-incubator

Origin (2020-2022)

NewControl (2019-2022)

NewControl will develop virtualized platforms for vehicular subsystems that are essential to highly automated driving.

CARLA (2020-2022)

The European Photonics CAReer LAunch Pad

PhotonHub Europe (2021-2025)

Pan-European photonics digital innovation hub to help SMEs and mid-caps to become highly competitive digital businesses through faster and smarter deployment of photonics-based technologies.

VortexLC, short for 'Vortex enhanced liquid chromatography for HbA1c monitoring based diabetes management in a globalized setting', involves collaboration with six European partners. Within the framework of this project, B-PHOT is developing a sensitive optical detection system designed for the quantification and identification of hemoglobin fractions within a lab-on-a-chip module. This advanced technology has the potential to greatly improve how we monitor diabetes and enhance healthcare outcomes.

The project includes three partners from Vrije Universiteit Brussel (B-PHOT Brussels Photonics, µFlow, and the Laboratory of Hematology and Clinical Chemistry of UZ Brussel), along with Joanneum Research in Austria, the National Center for Scientific Research Demokritos in Greece, and CPI in France.
