More β-amyloid news! Magdalena got a small grant (Miniatura) to conduct research focused on a selected group of N-terminal β-amyloids, which differ significantly in the way of coordinating copper (II) ions. What are β-amyloids? According to one of the most popular theories they are peptides responsible for the development of […]

In a consortium together with the company redox.me, the Norwegian research institute SINTEF, and Robert Bogdanowicz’s group at Gdańsk University of Technology we submitted a project to the POLNOR call, financed by the EEA and Norway Grants through The National Centre for Research and Development (NCBR). The project, which is […]
This is a bit of a late update, but in the end of last year when the National Science Centre announced the results of the latest application round, a consortium grant lead by Mateusz Śmietana from Warsaw University of Technology was approved. Martin is one of three members of that […]
Congratulations to Emilia! A three-year grant for the development of a versatile platform which enables cell growth and electrochemical analysis in various point of the three dimensional culture was just accepted by the The National Centre for Research and Development (NCBR). This project envisages collaboration with the Nencki Institute of […]
Congratulations to Ewa who got a Preludium grant in the last round to study “Genesis of dendritic spine head protrusion (SHP) formation”. In the project Ewa will be studying the influence of glutamate on the formation of spine head protrusions using a novel noninvasive electrochemical glutamate biosensor and fluorescent confocal microscopy […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
The results of the latest application round from the Polish National Science Centre were announced this week. It was a good day for our groups, with a 100% application success rate. Wojtek had applied for a Sonata grant that was financed for two years. The title of the project is […]
