A pleasure to host Prof. Reidar Lund from the Department of Chemistry at the University of Oslo next week for a seminar on 'Antimicrobial peptides: from their basic mode-of-action to antimicrobial nanoparticles' on Tuesday 14th May at 11 am at IBMC.

Excellent talk of my collaborator and friend Barbara Richichi today at IBMC on glyco-tools for precision biomedical applications. Enjoying very much hosting Barbara in our lab. 🤗

Such a great moment at the ChemOnTubes 2024 conference seeing again my friend & former colleague from Nanocyl company, Fang-Yue (left). Time's flying, but we have not changed much in 15 years (from my perception). 😉 A super opportunity also to meet new staff member from Nanocyl!

Very delighted to host Prof. Barbara Richichi from the Departement of Chemistry at the University of Florence for a seminar on 'Glyco-tools for precision biomedical applications: from small molecules to glyconanomaterials' on Thursday 2nd May at 3:30 pm at IBMC in Strasbourg.

Exciting workshops today 'From the lab bench to the patient's bedside' with melanoma clinicians & 'Data management' by NovaMechanics in the frame of Melomanes project. Great interactions with the clinicians and a wonderful week rich of fruitful exchanges in a very nice atmosphere

Amazing workshop on the use of communication techniques to enhance & promote scientific projects led by Sofia Gaio (F5C). The Melomanes doctoral researchers practiced exercises to improve presentation skills & creating engaging content about their research. A great experience! 🤗

Great to meet again Prof. Reidar Lund and Szymon Szostak from the Department of Chemistry at the University of Oslo, for a short visit. Very inspiring discussions on the self-assembly of peptides. 🤓

Fantastic day with workshops on strategical approach of communication (F5C), Science & Society dialogue approach (VU Amsterdam) and the key skills for a Melomanes PhD (ECQA). Very active and impressive contributions from the doctoral researchers of the MSCA Melomanes project! 👏

Third consortium meeting of the European MSCA Doctoral Networks project 'Melomanes' at the Oslo University Hospital.
Very delighted to see many interactions between the partners and great progress by the doctoral researchers in their individual research projects. 👍

Last day of the ChemOnTubes 2024 conference after a great gala dinner and dancing party last night!
Eric Doris on stage talking about carbon nanotube nanohybrid catalysts.
Next ChemOnTubes conference will be organised in Prague in April 2026. Looking forward!

Exciting fourth day of the ChemOnTubes 2024 conference! The carbon nanomaterial community is so nice. 😊 Minfang Zhang on stage!

Really enjoying the talks on this third day of the ChemOnTubes 2024 conference organised in Strasbourg. Aldo Zarbin and Milo Shaffer on stage. 👍

Second day of the ChemOnTubes 2024 conference with very interesting talks. Tatiana da Ros and Martin Kalbac on stage! 🤓

The ChemOnTubes 2024 conference has started today with a fantastic talk of Michael Strano. So nice to meet again the nanotube community!

Glad to host the seminar of Prof. Xianchao Sun on Friday 22nd March at 2:30 pm at IBMC (Strasbourg) entitled 'Improving the efficacy of pesticides by bio-based hydrogel carriers: effect and mechanism'.

The tumor accumulation of antibodies is less than 1%.

This does not prevent antibodies and ADCs from inhibiting tumor growth and creating clinical impact!

Why do people in #nanomedicine worry about 0.7%?

Excellent European Society for Molecular Imaging - ESMI award lecture by Prof. Liesbeth de Vries!

I am very pleased to share our second article on amino acid-based nanoparticles. Great contribution & perseverance from Tengfei Wang.
