THE TECHNOLOGY
🔬 Real-time sensing at the microscale
The team at @CNR NANO developed a QCM-D platform: the QSense E4.
This system relies on piezoelectric quartz crystals that oscillate at specific resonance frequencies.

Bioacoustics of plants 🎧🌱
Carmelo Cannarella (@CNR-ISB) engaged the class in detecting audio signals and "sounds" generated through the plants. Using electrodes, students listened to plant signals—revealing how crops respond to stress vs. abundance.
