SUMMARY:IBEC Seminar: Josep Puigmartí-Luis
DESCRIPTION:What can microfluidic technologies offer during self-assembly processes?\nJosep Puigmartí-Luis\, Departament de Ciència dels Materials i Química Física\, Institut de Química Teòrica i Computacional (invited by César Rodriguez-Emmenegger) \nSelf-assembly has long being used to control covalent and non-covalent interactions where molecular design has been the major driving force to achieve a desired outcome. Like in nature\, a full control over self-assembly processes could lead to rationalized structure-property correlations\, a long-time sought in chemistry\, physics and materials science. However\, the pathways followed and the mechanisms underlying the formation of supramolecular aggregates are still a major challenge for the scientific community. Accordingly\, the elucidation of nucleation and growth mechanisms will be highly required to push supramolecular chemistry to the next level\, where access to nature inspired functions will be accomplished. In this contribution\, I will present how reaction-diffusion (RD) conditions established within microfluidic devices can be used to uncover pathway complexity as well as to trigger pathway selection. Specifically\, I will show that microfluidic RD conditions provide an unprecedented kinetic control over self-assembly processes; for example\, enabling the isolation of well-defined kinetically trapped states as well as unprecedented metastable intermediates. This research provides a new tool to study and understand supramolecular chemistry\, and opens up new avenues for the engineering of advanced functional assemblies and systems. \n\nProf. Dr. Josep Puigmartí-Luis is a chemist who completed a master in Chemistry and Food Engineering at “Institut Químico de Serrià (IQS)” (2003) and did a PhD in materials science at Institut de Ciència de Materials de Barcelona (ICMAB). His work in supramolecular and flow chemistry\, has been awarded with “Premi Antoni de Martí i Franquès de Ciències Químiques”\, award from the Institut d’Estudis Catalans (2009)\, St. Jordi award from the Institut d’Estudis Catalans and the Societat Catalana de Química (2006) and an ETH fellowship in 2008. \nIn 2012\, he was appointed a Ramon Y Cajal (RyC) researcher\, but after two years as a RyC\, he decided to move back to Switzerland where in 2015 was awarded an ERC starting grant to study and control self-assembly processes of metal-organic based crystalline materials. In 2019\, he was appointed as an ICREA professor and since August 2020 his group is located at the University of Barcelona (UB).

SUMMARY:IBEC Seminar: Martí Duocastella
DESCRIPTION:Toward the next generation of 3D optical microscopes: faster\, deeper\, and label-free\nMartí Duocastella\, Departament de Fisica Aplicada\, Universitat de Barcelona \nThree-dimensional (3D) optical microscopy is the tool of choice for characterizing the structure and dynamics of biological systems at sub-cellular resolution. However\, most microscope architectures are tailored to capture two-dimensional (2D) information from moderately thin samples labeled with fluorophores. Due to constraints posed by light scattering and the requirement for mechanical focus translation\, existing systems provide shallow penetration depth and low volumetric imaging speed\, thus falling short of unraveling biological complexity inside medium-sized organisms or even organoids. In this talk\, I will discuss our efforts to overcome these issues and achieve sub-millisecond imaging at potentially millimeter depths and without labels. Our strategy consists of focusing\, modulating\, and guiding light by exploiting the acousto-optic effect\, that is\, ultrasound-induced refractive index gradients. The unique interaction between ultrasound and light enables rapid 3D light control\, making it suitable for the development of inertia-free light sheet microscopes that lack mechanically moving parts and offer imaging rates of tens of volumes per second. It also facilitates illumination encoding in single-pixel cameras\, enabling scanless 2D imaging at 5 kHz. Interestingly\, applying ultrasonic waves in a scattering medium acts as an instantaneous waveguide embedded in the medium\, helping to redirect light toward a 7-fold deeper focus. I will discuss the advantages and pitfalls of these acousto-optic technologies and illustrate them with applications\, including imaging of spheroids and flowing samples. \n\nMartí Duocastella is a Serra Hunter full professor in the Department of Applied Physics at Universitat de Barcelona (UB) and leader of the Dynamic Optical Systems Lab. He completed his PhD in Physics at UB in 2010 and then moved to Princeton University as a postdoctoral research associate\, where he also became the vice-president of Research and Development of the startup company TAG Optics. In 2014 he joined Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia as a researcher (group leader)\, until returning to Barcelona as a faculty member in 2019. His research focuses on novel optical methods for three-dimensional (3D) light engineering\, with applications in materials science\, sensing\, and biology. He is an ERC Consolidator Grant awardee. \nIn 2012\, he was appointed a Ramon Y Cajal (RyC) researcher\, but after two years as a RyC\, he decided to move back to Switzerland where in 2015 was awarded an ERC starting grant to study and control self-assembly processes of metal-organic based crystalline materials. In 2019\, he was appointed as an ICREA professor and since August 2020 his group is located at the University of Barcelona (UB)

SUMMARY:Plan Complementario de Biotecnología Aplicada a la Salud: el futuro de la medicina personalizada
DESCRIPTION:La jornada “Plan Complementario de Biotecnología Aplicada a la Salud: el futuro de la medicina personalizada” es un evento organizado en el marco del Plan Complementario de Biotecnología aplicada a la Salud en Cataluña. \nDurante el evento se presentarán las principales acciones colaborativas coordinadas desde Cataluña que cuentan con la colaboración de las comunidades autónomas participantes en el Plan. Estos proyectos abarcan desde el desarrollo e implementación de modelos integrados de inteligencia artificial para predecir el riesgo de determinadas enfermedades hasta el desarrollo de nuevos métodos para el cribado de fármacos que ayuden a acelerar el descubrimiento de nuevas dianas terapéuticas\, así como el desarrollo de técnicas avanzadas para la mejora de procesos quirúrgicos y técnicas de realidad virtual y aumentada. \nAsimismo\, se presentarán las diferentes plataformas tecnológicas de apoyo a la I+D financiadas por el Plan Complementario en Cataluña\, y que serán de acceso abierto a toda la comunidad de I+D española. Dos de ellas se podrán visitar al final de la jornada:   Plataforma de Cribado de Fármacos del IRB  y  Escáner de Resonancia Magnética nuclear 3T preclínico (MRI)  del IBEC. \nEl objetivo de la jornada es que sea un lugar de encuentro y networking que ayude a estimular y fortalecer colaboraciones entre los diferentes actores del ecosistema de investigación traslacional en salud en Cataluña y con el resto de las comunidades autónomas participantes en el Plan.  \nRegistro aquí \n\nEl Plan Complementario de Biotecnología Aplicada a la Salud ha sido cofinanciado por el Ministerio de Ciencia\, Innovación y Universidades con fondos de la Unión Europea NextGenerationEU\, el Plan de Recuperación\, Transformación y Resiliencia (PRTR-C17.I1). \n
