Institute for Nanotechnology (INT), Karlsruhe Institute for Technology, Karlsruhe, GermanyOrganizer Department of Molecular Chemistry and Materials ScienceContact Abstract Show full text abstract about The detection of spectroscopically silent analytes in water ...» The detection of spectroscopically silent analytes in water is often accomplished by utilization of reactive probes that form chromophoric analyte-dye conjugates. Unfortunately, similar but distinctly different analytes usually do not provide unique spectroscopic features, such that chromatographic separation steps have to be employed, causing significant additional costs and hinder applications. Supramolecular indicator-dye displacement assays can overcome certain limitations of reactive-probes, e.g., they allow for an in situ detection of even non-functionalizable analytes and are of great utility for reaction monitoring. However, their analyte differentiation capabilities are again restricted.
Here, we present new strategies involving supramolecular sensing ensembles that allow for improved analyte differentiation through spectroscopic fingerprints. We show that this strategy is applicable to both non-covalent analyte-receptor binding schemes and to reactive-probe assays.

The intricate nature of social interaction requires the ability to identify and recognize other members of the group in the right context, season, sex, age and reproductive state, and to respond appropriately to different social encounters.We study mechanisms that shape social interaction in Drosophila melanogaster and investigate the ways by which social interaction modulates motivational states and leads to different action selection in subsequent social encounters. -

Department of Chemical Engineering, Ben Gurion UniversityOrganizer Department of Molecular Chemistry and Materials ScienceContact Abstract Show full text abstract about Shape transitions in developing organisms can be driven by a...» Shape transitions in developing organisms can be driven by active stresses, notably, active contractility generated by myosin motors. We study the contraction and buckling of actomyosin networks isolated from bounding surfaces as a model system for studying shape transitions in developing tissues. This system offers a well-controlled way to study the role of physical constraints and boundary conditions mechanically induced spontaneous shape transition. -
