IALS Seminar: Sleep in the Brain: Everything you don't know about sleep but wish you did
Rebecca Spencer, Director of Sleep Lab. Sleep science is a rapidly expanding field that has tentacles into many other fields from neuroscience and public health to tech and economics. With this comes wildly new ideas about sleep that might just blow your mind!
IALS Seminar: Quantitative Analysis of Bone by IALS shared MicroCT - Research Highlight of Prof. Stacyann Bailey’s Lab
IALS Seminar: Solving Challenging Analytical Chemistry Problems Using Molecular Rotational Resonance (MRR) Spectroscopy
Lili He, Director of Raman Spectroscopy. This presentation will review basic principles and analytical capabilities of MRR, focusing on analyses that are challenging for other analytical techniques. The demonstrated MRR applications are highly diverse, ranging from stereoselective reaction monitoring and direct quantitative analysis of isomer mixtures to analysis of volatiles including residual solvents. Potential applications in other areas including the food industry will also be discussed.
IALS Seminar: Intercellular communication through the lens of Flow Cytometry
Elena Pobezinskaya, Center for Bioactive Delivery, Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences. An in vivo mouse tumor model that allows to track intercellular transfer of cytoplasm from tumor cells to immune cells based on fluorescent signal.
