MAGYTECH
MAGYTECH is a highly inter-disciplinary project whose primary goal is the use of new magnetoelectric materials and actuation protocols to boost energy efficiency in three technological domains: (i) data storage systems (by inducing a reduction of coercivity or, ultimately, ON-OFF magnetic transitions), (ii) tissue engineering (to promote cellular proliferation, differentiation and gene expression) based on the magnetoelectric stimulation of bone and muscle cells or neurons and (iii) magneto-electrocatalytic generation of hydrogen (and oxygen) as a green energy vector.

- Name of the project:
NEURO-MAG
The Proof of Concept (PoC) project NEURO-MAG aims to develop a new type of magnetic memory device with outstanding energy efficiency and unique data protection characteristics (i.e., with anti-hacking and anti-counterfeiting properties), able to be integrated in two types of applications: (i) smart cards (to secure data in e.g. credit or ID cards), (ii) USB memory sticks (as security locks to protect access to the data stored in a computer or server).
