Lab visit to the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne

Krzysztof Bielec participated in a research visit at the group of Professor Pablo Rivera-Fuentes. His visit was a continuation of his early 2020 lab visit canceled due to the COVID-19. The main goal of the project was to combine advantages of single-molecular localization and observation of real-time interaction of non-covalent complexes (e.g. protein-protein interactions, DNA hybridization, etc.).

Lab visit to the Harvard University

Natalia Pacocha visited Professor David Weitz's group at Harvard University. An aim of the visit was to learn new methods for the detection of fluorescence intensity in picoliter droplets. An initial assumption was to create an optical system for the detection of fluorescence intensity in the droplets containing amplified DNA of bacteria.

Lab visit to the Institute for Laser Technology in Medicine and Measurement Technique

Yu-Ting Kao, Ph.D. student, visited the Institute for Laser Technology in Medicine and Measurement Technique in Germany. The aim of the visit was to obtain some useful information that will become a reference in her Ph.D. project. The first object was to find out the limit of detection (LOD) of the Light-up Player by using the well-known fluorophores and recondition the software connected to the Light-up Player to be more user-friendly.
