These tiny holes could change how the world cleans water
A new nature-inspired membrane uses perfectly uniform one-nanometer pores to filter molecules with remarkable precision. The technology could transform industries such as pharmaceuticals and textiles by reducing energy consumption, improving water reuse, and delivering separation performance far beyond current filters.
Scientists discover a hidden quantum world inside cobalt
Scientists have uncovered unexpected quantum complexity inside cobalt, a metal long thought to be fully understood. Advanced measurements revealed a dense network of topological electronic states that remain robust at room temperature. These states enable extremely fast electron behavior and can be switched or controlled using magnetism. The discovery could open new paths toward next-generation […]
A 100-year-old piano mystery has finally been solved
For more than a century, pianists and music teachers have argued over whether a performer’s touch can actually change the tone color of a piano note — and now scientists say the answer is yes. Using a cutting-edge sensor system that tracked piano key movements at 1,000 frames per second, researchers discovered that elite pianists […]
Ordinary WiFi can now identify people with near perfect accuracy
Scientists in Germany have demonstrated a startling new form of surveillance: identifying people using nothing more than ordinary WiFi signals. By analyzing how radio waves bounce around a room, researchers can effectively “see” and recognize individuals — even if they are not carrying a device and even if their phone is turned off.
New quantum sensor could count individual photons and hunt dark matter
Researchers have built an ultra-sensitive sensor capable of detecting unimaginably small amounts of energy — below one zeptojoule. The breakthrough relies on fragile superconducting materials that react to even the slightest temperature change. This level of precision could improve quantum computers, enable photon counting, and even help scientists detect elusive dark matter particles from space.
New quantum algorithm solves “impossible” materials problem in seconds
A new quantum-inspired algorithm has cracked a problem so massive that conventional supercomputers struggle to even approach it. Researchers used the method to simulate extraordinarily complex quantum materials known as quasicrystals, opening the door to powerful new quantum devices and ultra-efficient electronics. The work could help scientists design advanced topological qubits and materials for future […]

This article about the title page is part of the series on how to write your dissertation. Every dissertation, thesis or research paper starts with a title page that explains in one glance what it is about, and who wrote it. Each university should have its own specific template (e.g. template from KU Leuven), but in the case that it does not, be sure that your title page contains at least the following elements:

1. Title page format

It is often the case that the university has a specific format for the dissertation, including the title page. Check your university’s website for a Word, or Latex template. Another case might be that the format is dependent on the citation style that you are using. Certain styles have guidelines on how alignment, page numbering and other elements.

2. Examples and templates

Below you find several examples from different universities. You can use these as a template for your own title page, or take a look at Overleaf, they have a gallery full of templates for you to use. I personally wrote it using their online software, and I can recommend it.
