4TU.Alumni Event in London
We are delighted to invite you to an alumni event on on 14 April featuring alumni researchers from the 4TU (WUR, TU Delft, TU/e and University of Twente) working at London's top institutions. One in six of our 4,500+ 4TU alumni in the UK holds a PhD. That is an amazing concentration of research talent — and nowhere is it more visible than in London.
The evening features a relaxed 'research speed dating' format. You'll join small tables to hear from and chat with senior researchers working on the frontiers of:
- AI & Robotics: From flapping-wing drones to AI-driven clinical decisions.
- Sustainability: Circular economy policy and global food security.
- Human Health: Brain-computer interfaces, clinical AI, skin tribology, and the molecular roots of human cells.
- The Future City: Energy system models and corporate strategy in the age of GenAI.
