New professor Luca Giomi creates his own physics of living systems
Swarms of drones, pedestrians or the cells in your body. Those are all examples of active matter: materials whose building blocks can move autonomously. That’s what Luca Giomi studies. Giomi has been appointed Professor of theoretical physics in the area of soft matter and biological physics at the…

Incidents and dangerous situations
Together we create a healthy and safe working environment. Should an incident, dangerous situation or needle-stick injury nevertheless occur, please report it immediately. Such incidents are far more frequent than serious accidents. By reporting them we can make sure that they do not lead to serious…

Risk Inventory and Evaluation
A safe and healthy work environment begins with identifying risks. A risk inventory and evaluation (RI&E) maps these risks per faculty, institute, service or department. In addition to an inventory and evaluation of risks, an RI&E also contains an action plan. This allows us to reduce risks and bott…
