HDEM (High Definition Electron Microscopy): hoge definitie elektronenmicroscopie. Grotere zuiverheid via multi-dimensionaliteit. Universiteit Antwerpen
Atomaire resolutie microscopie is gebaseerd op bundels van energetische elektronen. Deze bundels vernietigen fragiele materialen vrij snel, waardoor de beeldvorming ervan een grote uitdaging vormt. Ik heb recent een nieuwe benadering ontwikkeld die het grootst mogelijke oplossend vermogen per elektron voorziet. De methode biedt zowel dubbele resolutie als uitstekende ruisonderdrukking, via multidimensionale data-acquisitie en -analyse. Hier stel ...
Wetenschap en technologie mogelijk maken door Europese elektronenmicroscopie (ESTEEM3). Universiteit Antwerpen
ESTEEM3 is an integrating activity for electron microscopy providing access to the leading European state-of-the-art electron microscopy research infrastructures, facilitating and extending transnational access services of the most powerful atomic scale characterization techniques in advanced electron microscopy research to a wide range of academic and industrial research communities for the analysis and engineering of novel materials in ...
NAIL adsorptie en dynamica van nucleïnezuren op oppervlakken in ionische vloeistofomgeving. KU Leuven
Nucleic acid storage and stability is of primary importance as it finds uses in material science as nanomachines, biosensors and bioelectronics. The long-term stability and storage of DNA is a major challenge as hydrolytic reactions cause its denaturation when stored in an aqueous environment with conventional buffer solutions. Most of the devices employing nucleic acids require the nucleic acid molecule (generally DNA) to be adsorbed on the ...
Adaptieve transmissie-elektronenmicroscopie: ontwikkeling van een programmeerbare faseplaat(ADAPTEM) Universiteit Antwerpen
Adaptive optics, the technology to dynamically program the phase of optical waves has sparked an avalanche of scientific discoveries and innovations in light optics applications. Nowadays, the phase of optical waves can be dynamically programmed providing research on exotic optical beams and unprecedented control over the performance of optical instruments. Although electron waves carry many similarities in comparison to their optical ...
Focus op het bevorderen van ruimtelijke en temporele resolutie van 3D-gestructureerde verlichtingsmicroscopie KU Leuven
Super-resolved structured illumination microscopy (SR-SIM) is an important method to surpass the resolution limit in fluorescence microscopy. SR-SIM is compatible with many fluorescent labels and ensures low photo-damage, making it an ideal candidate for live-cell imaging. However, to be truly applicable, very fast 3D imaging has to be realized, as the cellular structuring is 3D in nature and fast dynamics have to be captured. In addition, ...
Correlating the 3D atomic structure of metal anisotropic nanoparticles with their optical properties. Universiteit Antwerpen
Metal nanoparticles (NPs) are intriguing systems due to their efficient interactions with light stemming from localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs), a phenomenon which is exploited in many applications in fields ranging from physics to biology and medicine. In particular, anisotropic shapes are interesting because of strong electromagnetic field enhancements at corners and tips. Next to monometallic NPs, bimetallic NPs offer an additional ...
Synthese van spirooxindolen en indolen-geneesmiddelen met metaal-organische frameworks KU Leuven
SINMOF is a pioneering and structured effort to comprehensively address the introduction of different immobilised isolated catalytic active sites in solid hybrid materials to overcome the metal losses occurring with state-of-the-art homogeneous catalysts employed in the pharmaceutical industry. The convenient use of hybrid metal-organic framework materials (MOFs) respect to traditional state-of-the-art porous solid materials is due to (a) ...
Ijle signaalcodering voor interferentie-gebaseerde beeldvormingsmodaliteiten (INTERFERE) Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Sinds de uitvinding van holografie in 1948 heeft deze technologie de belofte ingehouden om volledige parallax 3D visualisatie mogelijk te maken. Niettegenstaande dit traject significant langer was dan verwacht, hebben recente ontwikkelingen in de fotonica, micro-elektronica en computer engineering geleid tot het vooruitzicht om in het volgende decennium holografische televisie met aanvaardbare visuele kwaliteit te realiseren.

Immuunmechanismen van necrotisch DNA Fagocytose door neutrofielen: een rol voor integrinen KU Leuven
Cell death is inherently connected to the existence of multicellular organisms. Our body loses billions of cells a day due to thermal, mechanical or chemical damage in a cell death process with loss of plasma membrane integrity and pro-inflammatory properties known as necrosis. Organisms face necrosis frequently, thus, there must be specific pathways to remove the large amount of cellular debris left behind. In this way, it is no surprise ...
