cfaed scientists at Leibniz Institute for Solid State and Materials Research Dresden (IFW), TU Dresden, and Nanoelectronic Materials Laboratory (NaMLab gGmbH) realized flexible light weight diagnostic platform enabling its cost efficient high-volume delivery to medical institutions worldwide.
The worldwide deployment of biomedical devices for health monitoring, point-of-care diagnostics and environmental sensing is hampered by their high cost that is not readily affordable for e.g. developing countries. The primary task is therefore to reduce the price of the devices and allow for their high-volume delivery in a cost efficient manner, e.g. container transportation. For the latter, a crucial aspect is to reduce the weight of the device.

The third edition of the international Workshop on Virtual Prototyping of Parallel and Embedded Systems (ViPES’2015) took place in the beautiful island of Samos, Greece, on the 19th of July. In his role as program chair, Prof. Castrillon, together with Prof. Cristina Silvano from the Politecnico di Milano, put together a technical program with highly interesting presentations and keynotes. The workshop received submissions from 6 different countries (USA, Germany, China, Greece, Tunisia and Brazil) and was attended by above thirty participants. This edition of the workshop was co-located with the 15th International Conference on Embedded Computer Systems: Architectures, Modeling, and Simulation (SAMOS). Therefore, ViPES profited from both the friendly atmosphere and the in-depth technical discussions that characterize the SAMOS conference, for which ViPES will stay in Samos for at least one more year.

Da wir uns aus vielen kooperierenden Einrichtungen zusammensetzen, von denen auch viele heute zur Langen Nacht der Wissenschaften dabei sind, können wir hier nicht das ganze Programm auflisten. Die Grafik gibt aber einen Überblick, welche unserer Mitgliedsinstitute heute abend ihre Labore öffnen (Die Buchstaben beziehen sich auf die Kennzeichnung im offiziellen Programm der Langen Nacht).
Wenn Ihr Euch direkt zum cfaed informieren wollt, dann kommt doch einfach zu unserer zentralen Station am Barkhausenbau im Uni-Campus. Am Seiteneingang oberhalb des Teiches werdet Ihr von 18 - 23 Uhr cfaed-Leute treffen, die Euch etwas über das Cluster erzählen können und mit Euch Experimente durchführen werden, die einige unserer Forschungsthemen auf einfache und verständliche Weise darstellen.
Außerdem bietet Euch unser Dresden Center for Nanoanalysis (DCN) wieder die Möglichkeit, in kurzen Führungen das Labor kennenzulernen. Ein besonderes Highlight ist die Möglichkeit, sich fotografieren zu lassen und das Bild dann im Mikrometermaßstab im Elektronenmikroskop auf Silizium entstehen zu sehen. Wer schon immer mal Insekten oder verschiedene Metallproben ganz aus der Nähe durchs Elektronenmikroskop anschauen wollte, sollte das DCN auf keinen Fall verpassen!
