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.
