    Studium Generale – Rethinking human-nature relationships 🌱 Studium generale is for you, if you are keen to look beyond the limits of your discipline and would like to develop yourself. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the role and agency of non-human actors, including other beings, ecosystems and landscapes. Initiatives that advocate for a more-than-human perspective gain traction, embracing post-anthropocentric thinking, as well as concepts like non-human rights and multispecies justice. These efforts challenge traditional views of nature and aim to empower non-human natural entities, such as farmed animals, coral reefs, and rivers. 🐟 In this series, this paradigm shift will be explored and how it invites us to rethink humanity’s place in the natural world. What explains the rising attention for the ‘more-than-human’, and what does it mean to empower non-human nature in practice? The series will look at real initiatives that strive to better represent non-humans. To what extent do they contribute to meaningful change and what can we learn from them? The lectures take place in impulse at 20:00 on the following days:  Tuesday 29th of October: Listening to non-human voices – Carlota Houart, Arita Baaijens  Tuesday 5th of November: movie screening at Movie W (not at Impulse) - I am the river, the river is me  Tuesday 12th of November: Ecocentric thinking in practice – Judith Slagt, Sue van Geijn - van der Stelt, Clemens Driessen  Thursday 21st of November at 19:30: Do it yourself: More-than-human decision-making – Adriana Ressiore Campodonio #studiumgenerale #humannature #impulse

    Shared research facilities – user story 🤝 The Anunna High-Performance Computing (HPC) cluster at Wageningen Campus is a powerful shared research facility designed for large-scale data storage, computing, and artificial intelligence (AI) analyses. Funded partly by the RegioDeal Foodvalley subsidy, Anunna enables cost-effective collaboration between organisations on and off-campus, promoting knowledge and data exchange. The shared usage of Anunna is of great importance to WUR, as it supports various research and educational purposes of the university, providing significantly more capabilities and capacity for complex data analyses and machine learning, as well as facilitating data and knowledge exchange with other organisations.  Anne Boshove, a researcher at Topigs Norsvin and a user of Anunna, emphasises the importance of shared usage: ‘We perform extensive analyses only a few times a year. If we had to purchase an HPC system ourselves, it would be relatively expensive and a waste of capacity.’ Martijn Derks, also a researcher at Topigs Norsvin and a lecturer at Animal Breeding & Genomics at WUR, adds: ‘For complex calculations involving a lot of genetic variation and the desired connection to phenotypic traits, significant memory is required. The expansion of Anunna's data storage is therefore crucial to us.’ A noteworthy feature of Anunna is its water-cooling system, which is up to 80% more energy-efficient than air-cooled systems, making it both environmentally friendly and cost-effective. Anunna is part of the European supercomputing network and holds a regional Tier-2 status. Alexander van Ittersum says: ‘In many research projects, we see that the required IT infrastructure for AI plays a prominent role. With Anunna and, especially, the accompanying support that can be provided, we reduce complexity for researchers. They can focus primarily on their research, while the (sometimes complex) task of setting up and maintaining the required infrastructure is handled by IT.’ #sharedresearchfacilities #HPC #anunna

    Sharing research facilities to maximise productivity and accelerate innovation 📈 🤝 The SME vouchers are available again! This is a subsidy provided by the Regiodeal Foodvalley who believe that sharing facilities is fast, sustainable and cost-effective. Regiodeal Foodvalley offers companies and institutes subsidies for sharing facilities in the areas of protein transition, food and health and/or circular agrifood. The subsidy provides SMEs with a unique opportunity to access the scientific talent and facilities they need to develop and demonstrate innovative products. This might be an interesting opportunity, since it may enhance innovation, it may lower the (financial) threshold for the use of research and pilot facilities by startups and other SMEs and may stimulate collaboration between various organisations. 💡 In short: The total amount of subsidy available is €2,000,000 with funding between €10,000 - €50,000 towards an eligible project (50% co-financing needed). A minimum of 50% of the total project costs must be allocated directly to the use of the facility. Application is  open until June 2026 or until the subsidy’s budget has been exhausted.

    Start-up in the spotlight: Hippotainer 🌿 Wageningen University graduates Tijmen Blok and Jort Maarseveen have developed the Hippotainer, a vertical farm housed in a shipping container, designed to grow fresh vegetables in challenging environments. A shipping container is ideal for flexibility; it can easily be put on a truck. Once on location, it can be deployed swiftly, requiring no buildings or permits. They constructed their first prototype with intern Joël van Schoonhoven. Blok says the yields from the first attempts at growing leafy greens were enormous using minimal water and energy. In June 2023, they successfully deployed their first Hippotainer in Ukraine. Ukrainians have lacked nutrients and vitamins since the Russian invasion, so the very first Hippotainer made its way to Ivano-Frankivsk. They offered training and employment opportunities to a team of refugees. It is currently in full production in Ukraine providing local markets and restaurants with lettuce. 🤝 💡 Their container can provide solutions in places where conditions to grow vegetables are unfavourable due to supply issues, water shortages or poor soil quality. Not just areas in crisis but also islands, northern regions with a lack of daylight, or arid, warm regions. That's where Blok and Maarseveen see opportunities. #hippotainer #impact #verticalfarming

    Shared research facilities – user story 🌍🌿   Kalsec Inc. is unlocking the potential of people, nature, and science to feed the world —improving appearance, taste, and shelf life through the discovery of new plant metabolites. Collaborating with WUR, Kalsec used the advanced IQ-X mass spectrometer, funded by the RegioDeal Foodvalley subsidy, to quickly develop a proof-of-concept for non-specific analysis of plant molecules. 🔬  The company opened the Savoury Product Innovation Centre of Excellence (SPICE Lab) at Wageningen Campus to better support customers in the European market. This SPICE Lab focuses on savoury applications such as sauces, dressings and condiments and draws on the agrifood knowledge and experience of Wageningen University & Research and other organisations that are part of the Wageningen Campus ecosystem. The lab is an important part of the company's global strategy.  'The principle around sharing research facilities offers us so much that we see WUR as an important partner,' says James Redwine, lead scientist at Kalsec.  'We are constantly developing new ingredient solutions and making existing ones even better,' says Redwine. 'There are plenty of opportunities. It is estimated that more than two hundred thousand plant metabolites exist, of which only fifty thousand have been identified.' Through a framework agreement put together by WUR's Shared Research Facilities team, Kalsec now has easy access to a series of advanced devices.   #sharedresearchfacilities #collaboration #campusecosystem
