The aim of the project is to create a competition for student research grants and its pilot verification. The creation of a new competition will contribute to the development of cross-sectional skills of doctoral students, and thus acquire competencies for work in science and research in the future and increase their success in submitting scientific projects to national and international competitions.

Description in Czech
Environmental contamination is a major global challenge, and the effects of contamination are found in most habitats. Recently, the pollution by microplastics has come to the global attention and their removal displays an extraordinary challenge with no reasonal solutions presented so far. Here, visible-light-powered hematite/Ag microrobots with self-assembly capability for rapid and effective degradation of microplastics is proposed. The low-cost and scalable preparation of microrobots will open a new route toward environmental remediation.
