Leading the Drive for Excellence in Sensor Technology Development for the Benefit of Society and Ireland's Economy
Miniaturisation and integration of analytical systems for applications including environmental monitoring, point-of-care diagnostics and bioprocess monitoring is a significant research theme.
The design of bio-inspired materials, sensor interfaces and even whole systems requires a deep understanding of the interplay between morphology, microstructure, and composition of stimuli-responsive materials as well as their sensing functionality.
Innovations in materials and instrumentation are enabling the radical redesign of the biosensor for health measurements to be collected and analysed in decentralized settings, outside of a clinical laboratory, often autonomously by on-body deployments by the individual themselves.
Bacterial colonization of surfaces and interfaces has a major impact on various areas including biotechnology, medicine, food industries, and water technologies.
Congrats Dr @AoifeMorrin!

Twitter may be on the decline, but the seminar series is still going strong!! We are delighted to announce that Dr Peter Byrne (@ByrneChemistry) from @uccchemistry will be joining us next Thurs (24th) at 4pm in XG14 to deliver the penultimate seminar of the series. All welcome!
It's #ScienceWeek2022! 🥳
Check out all that @DCU has on offer here: https://www.dcu.ie/commsteam/dcu-events/2022/nov/science-week including the @DCUFSH evening of activities on the 17th (which includes cutting edge talks, some messy chemistry demos, and a tour of the brewing facilities in @DcuBiotech).
