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.
Interested in the pollen concentrations and trends over the past few years. Delighted to be part of the first multi-year study in Ireland. #pollen #hayfever #asthma @IrishPollen @DCUChemistry

Figuring out what bin to put our plastic waste in can be very confusing. Here's some reasons why, and some things we can do to help. Thanks to @RTEBrainstorm for the chance to contribute and to @RegBently for the assist in putting it together. @grain_lab @DCU https://twitter.com/RTEBrainstorm/status/1552311557136285699
How plastic packaging labels lie to you about recycling. Properly disposing of plastic packaging is often a bit of a puzzle because of which plastics can and cannot be recycled, writes @JGaughrandcu @grain_lab @DCU https://www.rte.ie/brainstorm/2022/0727/1312549-plastics-packaging-recycling-labels/
Dr Paola Drago successfully defended her thesis yesterday on our favourite human gene DHFR2! So proud of you Paola! @APMCDLab @DcuBiotech @DCUFSH @NTDs_research @PaolaDrago3 @BookeyNiamh @WilliamsMolly_9 @LeesMurdock_DJ @DarrenWalshDCU @nicb_dcu
Excited for the first day of the @ISPPCC_2022 conference today in Vancouver, Canada! @SEAI_ie @UBC @DCUChemistry @DCU @DCUFSH
