Theremoelectric Nanomaterials for Energy Recovery

Thermoelectric materials offer the unique capability to convert waste heat directly into electrical energy. Efficiency is related to a figure of merit (ZT S2sT/k), that is determined by the Seebeck coefficient (S), electrical conductivity (s) and thermal conductivity (k). Read more

[FSE PhD President's Doctoral Scholarship] Molecular Quantum Sensors for High-Resolution Immunomagnetic Mapping of Cancer Cells

How precisely can we map molecular markers on a cancer cell? This question is important because the behaviour of cancer cells depends not only on which biomarkers they express and at what levels, but also on where those molecules are located within the cells and how that changes their distribution within their local environment.

Respiratory supercomplexes under the lens of single-molecule spectroscopy

Respiration provides energy for the majority of cellular biochemistry in the form of ATP. It does so through the electron transport chain (ETC) – a network of membrane-associated enzymes which couple electron transport to proton pumping. Read more
