This scientific workshop was delve into the most recent experimental and computational methods in the field of characterization of irradiation damage in materials for extreme operating conditions. Attendees learned about the experimental and...

Antibodies in the development of immunological tests for in vitro diagnosis. Application in the context of infectious diseases and biological warfar...

Antibody-based radiolabeled molecules to in vivo diagnose, follow and predict the tumor evolution and associated treatment efficacy (diagnosis, imaging purposes) and to kill tumor cells with the association of tumoricidal isotope (treatment). Antibodies and its derivatives...

Antibodies are proteins naturally produced by the immune system to protect us from infection by pathogens. Their main characteristic is their selectivity for their target, which is harnessed to produce new drugs. They are naturally generated in the body and this proces is...

Martin Hruby was born in Prague, Czech Republic, in 1978. He awarded his MSc. degree in 2002 in the field of organic chemistry and Ph.D. degree in 2006 in the field of polymer science. He is working as a senior researcher...

In the ideal world, academia produces ideas and proof of concepts while the industry develops and implements them. In reality, communication between both entities is difficult, as it seems we speak different languages. In this talk, we want to show...

Simulations in molecular dynamics (MD) often are carried out in an applied pressure, as for instance in case of modelling the dynamics of dislocations in materials. In analysis of results a crucial role is played by the proper understanding of underlying process of pressure penetration itself, since this is a dynamic process...

Anions and cations are ubiquitous in nature and play very important roles in many areas, such as biological research, clinical diagnosis, industries and environmental process. There recognition and monitoring are of primordial importance in biological mechanisms, medicine and environment. The design of anion receptors is...

Though much has been improved in the design of bulk metallic glasses since the 1960s, parts are still usually produced by casting, limiting their size to a few millimetres to centimetres in thickness due to falling cooling rates and increasing crystallisation when increasing casting diameter. This limitation has been the greatest impediment to the use of BMGs as structural parts and tools, despite their advantageous properties. Only recently...

Nanostructured metallic catalysts are usually obtained by homogeneous synthesis. Then one needs to apply capping agents to stop the growth of nanostructures and prevent their aggregation. Capping agents affect the catalytic properties of such prepared nanostructures by hindering access of reactants to the catalyst surface. Electrochemical methods allow...
