The Inspire Grant gave me the opportunity to spend a month in the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (Livermore, CA, USA), an institution with more than half century of history. My host group was Prof. Alex Noy’s Bioelectronics and Nanofluidics Group. They have a large experience interfacing biological elements and electronic circuits, including the analysis of transport through artificial pores created by inserting carbon nanotubes in lipid membranes, and published in the highly prestigious journals Science and Nature. The group members were very open and sociable, which helped to easily adapt from the very first day.

Professor Zhenan Bao is a Professor of Chemical Engineering at Stanford University. She is also a co-founder and on the Board of Directors for C3 Nano, a silicon-valley venture funded start-up commercializing flexible transparent electrodes. Prior to joining Stanford in 2004, she was a Distinguished Member of Technical Staff in Bell Labs, Lucent Technologies from 1995-2004. She has over 400 refereed publications and over 60 US patents with a Google Scholar H-Index >110. She pioneered a number of design concepts for organic electronic materials. Her work has enabled flexible electronic circuits and displays. In her recent work, she has developed skin-inspired organic electronic materials, which resulted in unprecedented performance or functions in medical devices, energy storage and environmental applications.

Carbon Materials such as nanoparticles, fibres, adamantane- and graphene-like structures are widely used in science and engineering. Applications range from energy and gas storage to electronics and optical applications. The internationally renowned experts who contributed to this book discuss chemical aspects of carbon structures, their synthesis, functionalization and design strategies for defined applications.
Chemistry of Carbon Nanostructures aims to present the current state-of-the-art synthesis and application of carbon materials like nano diamonds, ribbons and graphene-like structures in science and engineering. Edited by Professor Klaus Müllen, who received the Adolf von Bayer Medal for his contribution to Carbon Chemistry, and Xinliang Feng, this book combines outstanding contributions by a renowned international team of experts.

Thanks to cfaed inspire grant, I had an opportunity to work with Anatoly Zayats who is leading one of the strong plasmonics and nano-optic groups in Europe. I work on DNA templated self-assembled plasmonic waveguides which is one of the core projects in BAC path. During my research stay, I got the chance to learn more about nanophotonics, plasmonics and near-field optical techniques. It was truly a great experience and scientifically a productive stay at King’s College London.

12 Sep 2017 (Tue) & 13 Sep 2017 (Wed), Vienna House QF Hotel, Dresden
This workshop is organized in the context of the 5-year EU Horizon 2020 project Bio4Comp (http://bio4comp.org) that aims to develop network-based computing, and to build a strong research community around this challenge. In this approach, combinatorial problems are encoded into nanofabricated networks and solved by large numbers of molecular-motor-propelled protein filaments in so called network-based biocomputation. In this workshop, experts of quantum- and DNA computing and molecular motor-powered, network-based computing will join forces to develop new directions in biocomputation.
Participation includes conference materials and refreshments. It is cost-free but active participation is expected (poster or oral). Registration deadline: 31st July 2017.
