Development of UNCD-based multielectrode arrays for neuronal measurements
(2017-07-26)
The work in hand will show how some of diamond’s extraordinary features can be utilized in bio-applications especially for in vitro cultures of neuronal cells. Diamond has proven itself as an excellent material for bio-applications such as simple fluorescent microarrays over bioFET (field effect transistor) to bioMEMS (microelectro-mechanical systems). The reason does not only lie in its best known properties namely extreme hardness and high refractive index, but in its unique chemistry. As one of the modifications ...

Photoperiod-dependent plasticity of circadian pacemaker center in the brain of the Madeira cockroach Rhyparobia maderae
(2012-12-04)
To various degrees, insects in nature adapt to and live with two fundamental
environmental rhythms around them: (1) the daily rhythm of light and dark, and (2) the yearly seasonal rhythm of the changing photoperiod (length of light per day). It is hypothesized that two biological clocks evolved in organisms on earth which allow them to harmonize successfully with the two environmental rhythms: (1) the circadian clock, which orchestrates circadian rhythms in physiology and behavior, and (2) the photoperiodic clock, ...
