Emilia got a small grant (Miniatura) to develop a bio-analytical platform for multi-site electrochemical monitoring of species such as oxygen and glucose in a 3D cell culture system. 3D cell cultures are postulated to become a bridge between 2D in vitro models and experiments on animals. They provide more natural environment for […]

Our group did very well in our institute’s “Young scientist” awards this year. The award is given to a number of PhD students and young doctors (under 35) for their publication record over the last three years. This year both Emilia and Wojtek were awarded in the doctor category and […]
A project for investigating different methods for neurotransmitter determination in forced convection systems was recently approved by the National Science Centre. Magdalena got financed for two years for exploration of the topic and investigation of a new method for simultaneous detection of neurotransmitters. The popular science description of the project […]
Dawid successfully defended his PhD thesis on Thursday, and today he was officially recognised as doctor of chemistry by our scientific council. Dawid’s thesis, with the title “Electrochemical processes at liquid|liquid interfaces in microfluidic systems” can be found here (pdf). The thesis received positive opinions from the two reviewers, Prof. […]
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 […]
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 […]
Emilia’s Ph.D. thesis entitled “Analysis of Samples of Clinical and Alimentary Interest with Paperbased Devices“ was just awarded with the Springer thesis prize and will be published in their book series Springer Theses – the “best of the best”, recognizing outstanding Ph.D. research that “must represent a significant scientific advance”. Normally, editors […]
Every year our institute awards the “best paper” published during the previous year. Six papers are awarded: A winner, a runner-up, a third place and three mentions. This year the paper “Antibody modified gold nanoparticles for fast and selective, colorimetric T7 bacteriophage detection” (Bioconjugate Chem. 25, 644-648 (2014)) was one […]
Congratulations to Dawid who was awarded one of Etiuda stipends from the National Science Centre with a project with the very general title “Badanie procesu transferu jonów na granicy ciecz|ciecz w warunkach mikroprzepływowych” (“Investigation of ion transfer at the liquid|liquid interface under microfluidic conditions”). The stipend will allow Dawid to […]
In this year’s “Young researchers” competition in the institute our small group managed to nab two awards. Wojtek was one of the winners in the PhD category, and Dawid was among the winners in the student group. Congratulations to the both of you! Beers are on you next time.
