EducationTeltonika’s TeltoHeart, a multifunctional smart wristband system, developed in cooperation between the Lithuanian industry and universities has been given the CE MDR (Class IIa) medical device certification. This approval confirms that the product meets the comprehensive quality standards for medical devices and opens up new markets worldwide for this innovative product. Every year, Kaunas University of Technology (KTU) accepts about 70 PhD students for state-funded doctoral studies, and about 30% of them are candidates from abroad. This year, KTU calls the applicants’ attention to the brand-new doctoral programme in mathematics and an increased state scholarship for doctoral students. Admissions open on June 5, 2024. The ATHENA European University Alliance, which includes VILNIUS TECH, has an exciting opportunity for all ATHENA students – 50 Google Career Scholarships are now available exclusively for members of the ATHENA Alliance. These scholarships provide access to educational resources and opportunities aimed at enhancing students' skills and employability. VU Hosts an Event on Experiences and Challenges in the Research Assessment Process2024-05-20, 18:30On 11 June, Vilnius University (VU) will host a seminar-discussion on experiences and challenges in the research assessment process in the context of the Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment (CoARA) agreement. Eugénio Campos Ferreira, Vice-Rector for Science and Innovation at the University of Minho, Portugal, will share best practices during the event. The event is organised by the Science Administration Unit. We live surrounded by various objects that we can't imagine our daily lives without: in the morning, the coffee machine brews our coffee, we simply put the dirty cup in the dishwasher, the soiled towel goes into the washing machine, and the crumbs from the floor are collected by a robot vacuum cleaner. These and thousands of other objects that ease our daily routines were created using the knowledge of mechatronics and robotics. From waste to worth: Lithuanian researchers proposed a new method for wind turbine blade recycling2024-05-07, 09:48While wind energy is becoming one of the fastest-growing energy sources in the world, wind turbine blade waste emerges as a critical issue. Addressing this urgent environmental concern, Lithuanian researchers have developed an innovative solution claiming that the benefits of pyrolysis can help reduce pollution. In April, severe floods swept across Central Asia, particularly in Kazakhstan and Russia, the aggressor country. The flooding of the Ural, Tobol, and Ishim rivers is estimated to be the worst in the region in the last 80 years. In this article, Elzė Buslavičiūtė and Dr Laurynas Jukna, geographers at the Institute of Geosciences of Vilnius University, answer some questions on how satellites monitor these floods, their extent, and the potential causes. Globally, as many as 10 per cent of couples cannot have children naturally. 33 per cent of assisted reproduction cycles are successful – a healthy baby is born. To help couples have children, KTU researchers and their partners are working on a diagnostic system to determine whether the uterus is ready to accept an embryo grown in a petri dish. Are you writing a thesis on public finance? Participate in the competition of the Ministry of Finance2024-04-30, 14:28Students writing final theses on public finance topics are invited to participate in the competition of the Ministry of Finance. Such a competition is being organized for the second time, and the winners and their supervisors will be awarded cash prizes. The gap between scientists and the public is decreasing - Vilnius Gediminas Technical University (VILNIUS TECH) Citizen Science Centre is building bridges between the scientific community and citizens. When people engage in scientific processes, together explore and analyse data, the benefits of scientific research reach a much broader part of society. |
