Our goal is to promote STEM and explain the research carried out at Institute of Solid State Physics, University of Latvia in a simple and engaging way designed for schoolers.
Today, Dr.Valdis Mizers and Dr. Boris Polyakov, leading researcher and head of the Additive Manufacturing Group, gave a physics lesson at Daugavpils Technology Secondary School-Lyceum. The focus was on photochromism and thermochromism, explaining how materials respond to light and temperature, and how these effects can be used in smart windows.
During the same trip, SWEB team also visited partners at Daugavpils University, sharing our experience in group sustainability and preparation of Horizon Europe Twinning proposals. Also discussed potential research collaboration on sensors for sustainable agriculture.
