      "summary_nl": "Het invriezen van cellen en weefsels is essentieel voor de moderne geneeskunde, maar mitochondriën, de kleine energiecentrales van de cel, beschadigen vaak tijdens het invriezen waardoor ze niet meer functioneren na ontdooien. Dit project ontwikkelt nieuwe manieren om deze schade te begrijpen en in te dammen. Met kwantumsensoren en speciaal ontworpen materialen die ijs beïnvloeden, onderzoeken we waarom mitochondriën hun functie verliezen en hoe dit kan worden voorkomen. Met deze kennis kan de preservatie van biologisch materiaal verbeterd worden. Dit is essentieel voor de ontwikkeling van nieuwe behandelingen die afhankelijk zijn van gezonde en functionerende mitochondria.",
      "summary_en": "Freezing cells and tissues is essential for modern medicine, but mitochondria, the tiny structures that power cells, are easily damaged during freezing and often fail after thawing. This project develops new ways to detect and control that damage at the smallest scales where it begins. Using quantum-based sensors, together with carefully designed materials that influence how ice forms, we will identify why mitochondria lose function during freezing and how this damage can be prevented. The results will support safer and more reliable preservation of biological material and help enable future therapies that depend on healthy, functional mitochondria.",
