Also this year the deCock Hadders Stichting has awarded grants to our team. Hui Ting and Andrea were both awarded a deCock grant this year. Huiting will use the money for studying male fertility and Andrea for studying bioreactor health

Tjarda Polderman (founded) said in an interview that QTsense is promising to become a unicorn in the future.

Romana wins a prestigious ERC consolidator grant for her project FORESEE. During the project, we will develop a system which will allow sepsis monitoring .

Our recently graduated master student Angela convinced in the Annual QBIC symposium. She was able to win the people's choice award. Congratulations angela.

We are proud of Beatriz, who spent the last year of her PhD project with us and who just graduated from USP in Brazil. Congratulations on the great achievement Beatriz!!!

It was just announced that the ONCO-Q project has been funded with almost 2 mln EUR by SNN. The project is lead by QTsense in a consortium with the Life Cooperative the UMCG (Schirhagl (BBT), Kruijff (Surgical Oncology)) and RUG (Fodran, Chemical and Pharmaceutical Biology — Groningen Research Institute of Pharmacy ) will investigate how diamond based quantum sensing can be used to diagnose colon cancer and predict drug efficacy.  Read more here: https://qtsense.com/blogs/pre

In the paper we have demonstrated that we can deliver diazoxide that are attached to nanodiamonds into cancer cells in a pH sensitive fashion. This is useful; because the pH changes when the particles enter the cells. We further showed that we can detect the stress response by the cells towards the particle directly via relaxometry.
