Dr Pierangelo Gobbo awarded 2016 Governor General's Gold Medal11 October 2016Congratulations to Dr Pierangelo Gobbo a visiting research associate in Professor Steve Mann's group who has been awarded the prestigious Governor General's Gold Medal at Western University Canada
Small droplets feel the vibe7 October 2016A team of researchers from the Schools of Chemistry, Engineering & Physics have used ultrasonic forces to accurately pattern thousands of microscopic water-based droplets. Each droplet can be designed to perform a biochemical experiment, which could pave the way for highly efficient lab-on-a-chip devices with future applications in drug discovery and clinical diagnostics.
Protocells on the hunt4 October 2016Researchers at the University of Bristol have designed a synthetic community of artificial cells that collectively displays a simple form of predatory behaviour. The work provides a new approach to designing complex life-like properties in non-living materials.
