ERC funding for levitated micro-electro-mechanical systems
LCN researchers at King’s have received €150,000 in grant funding from the European Research Council (ERC) to develop the LeviTech project, led by Dr James Millen. Through its use of innovative levitation techniques, the project will apply the principles of quantum...LCN research activities carry on during lockdown
The cogs of research are still spinning for LCN researchers despite the challenges they are facing due to COVID-19. With lab work on pause, researchers are busy writing grant proposals or papers, running simulations and analysing data from home offices, kitchen tables...
Computer labs redeployed towards global coronavirus research
King’s College London’s Faculty of Natural & Mathematical Science’s (NMS) Computing Support team is taking part in a global computational effort led by Folding@home to identify potential small drug molecules in the fight against the SARS-CoV-2...
The LCN and COVID-19
All three partner institutions in the LCN (King’s College London, Imperial and UCL) are currently working remotely in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Some of the LCN experimental facilities are open and operating at a limited capacity, and activities related...
