We are honoured to welcome Her Excellency Dr. Bettina Fanghänel, Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany, along with Dr. Thorsten Clausing, Counsellor for Science and Technology Cooperation at the German Embassy, to TUMCREATE. The visit featured a dynamic programme that provided an overview of Technical University of Munich (TUM) presence in Singapore—encompassing both Technical University of Munich (TUM) Asia and TUMCREATE—along with an exciting outlook on our plans for 2025. A highlight of the visit was the presentation of our collective academic and research achievements, including insights into the #Proteins4Singapore (P4SG) project, one of our flagship initiatives driving innovation in Singapore’s food sustainability efforts. We extend our sincere gratitude to Dr. Bettina Fanghänel and Dr. Thorsten Clausing for their interest in TUM’s initiatives in Singapore. We look forward to the future collaborations and new opportunities, driven by our shared dedication to education, science and innovation as we move towards 2025. #Innovation #Sustainability #TUMCREATE #Education #Entrepreneurship

We are thrilled to announce that Nikolaus Stellner, #TUMCREATE research fellow from #Proteins4Singapore (P4SG) research program, has won the Evonik Circularity Open Challenge 2024. Nikolaus, who recently concluded his practical work as a PhD student at the Werner Siemens-Chair for Synthetic Biotechnology, Technical University of Munich (TUM), demonstrated exceptional creativity, innovation, and scientific excellence. Building on his work in cellular agriculture and valorisation of biogenic waste streams, Nikolaus put forward an award-winning solution that showcases how scientific ingenuity can drive sustainable practices. His success in the challenge has earned him an invitation to present his idea to Evonik’s Animal Nutrition Research and Development team, alongside the other top winners at the end of the year.

It was our pleasure to invite Prof Joe Schmitt, Director of PrepVax at National Centre for Infectious Disease to share his inspiring career journey with researchers in the CREATE community. During the #fireside chat, hosted by #TUMCREATE, he discussed his contributions to vaccine development and infectious diseases, highlighting both the achievements and challenges faced. The session provided all attendees valuable insights on navigating the ups and downs of a scientific career and the transitioning between research and leadership roles. Thank you to everyone who joined us! #careerconversation

Applications to the #TFoodS Otter Tank startup pitching competition, under the theme "Urban Food Intelligence – AI Options to Leverage Alternative Proteins Supply in Megacities," has been extended to 20th October. Does your startup leverage AI tools for tasks like optimising supply chain logistics, improving product formulations, predicting consumer trends, or other innovative solutions? We look forward to receiving your application via https://lnkd.in/gRCc9ePz #TUMCREATE #UrbanFoodIntelligence #alternativeprotein #innovation #foodscience #foodinnovation 

🚗🔋 Dr Tobias Massier, #TUMCREATE Principal Scientist and Department Head shared key insights about his research projects supporting Singapore’s #decarbonisation efforts including its transition to #electricvehicles (EVs) and #smartcity planning, at the "Smart Cities by CREATE" roundtable during CNRS@CREATE's DesCartes Week 2024.   He highlighted how the Singapore Integrated Transport Energy Model (#SITEM) through #modelling and #simulation was pivotal in analysing projected EV charging patterns and energy demand. The technology is instrumental in supporting Singapore’s policymaking and vision for all vehicles to run on cleaner energy by 2040. #electricmobility #transport #powersystem
