  • We extend our heartiest welcome to Dr. Ahmed Alsadig as a Post-doc in our team. He completed his PhD at the University of Trieste, Italy, in the group of Dr. Loredana Casalis on "Harnessing the plasmonic properties of gold nanoparticles: functionalization strategies coupled with novel spectroscopic tools." Afterwards, he visited our group last summer as a guest researcher. His research here at HZDR will primarily focus on using optimized gold nanoparticles coupled with biomolecules relevant to theranostic applications in cancer.

  • Guest researchers this summer: We are happy to welcome two guest researchers at our department!

Amna Batool: Amna is a PhD student from Monash University that have joined HZDR as part of a collaborative project called MHELTHERA (Helmholtz international lab). Amna has a Master's degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. Currently, she develops targeted and biocompatible nano-radiopharmaceuticals to be used as theranostics agents against cancer cells.

Dr. Ahmed Alsadig: Ahmed is a visiting researcher within our department. His primary research revolves around exploiting surface modification strategies to enhance the responsiveness of plasmonic nanoparticles to improve health-relevant biomolecule detection.

  • Larysa Baraban acts as co-editor in ChemNanoMat, for the article collection 'Beyond Active Colloids: From Functional Materials to Microscale Robotics’  together with Juliane Simmchen and WeiWang.
  • The talk on  "OFET biosensors based on stretchable semiconducting polymer: a proof-of-concept application in COVID-19 pandemic" by our PhD Student Trang Anh Nguyen Le won Second Prize for Best Presentation by Young Scientist in NANONET Annual Workshop 2021. Congratulations! (Image credit: Dr. Zahn Peter)

                                               

  • We are happy to welcome Dr. Željko Janićijević to join us as PostDoc since 1th of April 2021. 
  • Our article 'Impact of surface charge on the motion of light-activated Janus micromotors' by Tao Huang, et al., has been accepted in The European Physical Journal E. In this paper, we investigated the dependence of the motility on the ζ-potential of the underlying substrate. The direction of the motion could be inverted by changing the sign of the motor’s zeta potential. The velocity of these micromotors can be further tuned by varying the boundary’s physicochemical properties that they are close to. Congratulations!
