■ J. Gilbert and K. Garg received the 2014 Best of Biotech award for TICK-TAG; a diagnostic kit, detects Tick-Borne Disease Pathogens.
From Laboratory to the World
HYBTONITE® ■ Composite material; epoxy resin reinforced by carbon nanotubes■ Used in sporting equipment, wind mill blades, yachts, etc.■ The Montreal Nitro® HYBTONITE® hockey stick was
voted number one Nanoproduct in the world (Nanotech 2006, Tokyo, Japan).
■ J. Toppari’s Window Integrated Solar Collector was chosen one of the seven projects of New Indigo ERA-NET of EU. It proposes a novel principle of separating the heat (IR part) from the visible light and use it for energy generation.
