One of the two students recruited to our Sonata Bis project, Marta Podrażka, just started working with us. Marta finished her studies in chemistry at Warsaw university and wrote her master thesis under the supervision of Prof. Barbara Pałys. Her thesis concerned electrochemical deposition of gold nanoparticles on ITO and […]

Annelies Voorhaar, the second INTREPID student Martin is partner for, was visiting the group during a week in the end of June. Her time was spent mostly doing EWOD-experiments with Martin – hiding from the warm Warsaw summer in a cold lab without window. Annelies also gave a nice talk […]
The last remaining publication from Emilia’s PhD studies just appeared in Electroanalysis. Immobilization of enzymes can significantly prolong the stability of an assay, but on the other hand depending on the method chosen, it can also influence the porous structure of the paper and provide additional charge. Having this in mind we […]
Every year our institute gives an award for the most prominent young scientists among the doctors and phd-students. This is based on the number of publications over the last three years. This year Dawid was one of the laureates in the student category, and Wojtek in the doctors’ group. Our […]
This week Emilia and Martin will attend the 26th Anniversary World Congress on Biosensors in Göteborg. If you are interested in our research Emilia will have an oral presentation on Wednesday at 16.45 about paper-based electrode arrays. Martin will present a poster on Friday (no P3.008). So, please come and see […]
On 20th of April a group of 8 high school students accompanied by their photography professor Weronika Elertowska visited our group in order to prepare a home-made photography paper and learn a bit about what we do. The salt print technique was created in the 1830s by Henry Fox Talbot, […]
A new publication in Analytica Chimica Acta appeared describing paper-based discrimination of beer and wine samples using an electronic tongue. Although Emilia’s affiliation is still from the Brazilian institution UNICAMP it is of course still worth mentioning. This is the second article describing paper-based electronic tongues with electrochemical detection; the […]
A four-year grant for investigation of ion-transfer between immiscible liquids under hydrodynamic control was just accepted by the National Science Centre. Recently NCN declared that each grant application needs to include a one-page popular science description of the proposed work, that will be published when the grant is accepted. The Polish […]
An article was just accepted in the journal Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology where Martin is one of the co-authors. The topic is the creation of 3D cell cultures in different matrices that could be used for assessing nanoparticle toxicity and compared to 2d cell cultures. The matrices used were three […]
