Within her SONATINA grant, Magda is conducting research on a new potential therapeutic molecule: TDMQ20. In our previous posts, we described her electrochemical studies, which helped better understand the redox properties of TDMQ20 itself and its complexes with copper ions (Cu(II)). The next stage of the project focused on investigating the extent […]

A new study on boranil photocatalysts just dropped! Collaboration is very important for our research group. For this reason, Magda once again supported the team of Prof. Tomasz Kliś from Warsaw University of Technology by carrying out voltammetric studies as part of their research on halogenated boranil complexes. In this […]
A little late update, but at the end of last year a press note was published by our Institute highlighting Magda’s work on the electrochemical properties of TDMQ20, a molecule that has been proposed as a potential drug for treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. The press note concerns the two papers […]
A paper was just published in ACS Materials Letters by our former PhD student, Marcin S. Filipiak, with Martin as one of the co-authors. The paper describes a conductive hydrogel based on a combination of GelMA, PEDOT:PSS, and tetramethacrylated PEDOT:TOS. This material is a conductive 3D scaffold that can be […]
In January, Natalia attended a Winter School of Electrochemistry organised by the University of Bath. The school is organised by Prof Petra Cameron with a team from the Department of Chemistry at Bath. Among the organisers are Prof Frank Marken and Dr Sara Dale, both of whom have visited IChF […]
As a nice New Year’s gift, our article about Amyloid-β adsorbed at the ITIES was published in ACS Electrochemistry. In this paper, we investigate the behaviour of two different peptides, Aβ(1-16) and Aβ(4-16), at the liquid|liquid interface. There are many publication describing the adsorption of proteins at the ITIES (e.g. […]
We are very happy to welcome Ketley Caroline Rocha Pereira to our group. Ketley joins the Warsaw4PhD doctoral school in our new Opus project. She will be working together with Natalia to develop sensors for biomarkers for neurodegenerative diseases. Ketley joins us from Brazil, where she studied at the Mackenzie Presbyterian […]
The follow-up to Julia’s previous publication on assisted ion transfer at the three-phase junction was a long time coming. As in the previous paper, we used a squaramide-based ionophore to help transferring hydrophilic ions across the interface between to immiscible liquids, but here, the ionophore was functionalised with a ferrocene […]
The story of spectroelectrochemistry continues… It took a year, but here it is – the second paper by Magda in collaboration with Professor Álvaro Colina’s research group! The sheer amount of data and the depth of analysis required a lot of time and effort, but it was absolutely worth it. […]
We are very happy to welcome Natalia Ostrowska as a new member of the group. Before arriving to our group, Natalia studied for a Master’s degree in Applied Chemistry at the University of Warsaw. Her master thesis concerned the development of a microfluidic bioreactor based on the Lab-on-a-Foil principle. This […]
