SUMMARY:Frontiers of Science: Nanomaterials-based biosensors for diagnostic
 s applications
DESCRIPTION:In Arje Scheinin Auditorium\, Dentalia 2nd floor\n\nProf. Arben
  Merkoçi\, Institut Català de Nanociència i Nanotecnologia\, Barcelona\
 , Spain\n\nHost: Johan Bobacka (jbobacka@abo.fi)\n\nArben Merkoçi is curr
 ently ICREA Professor and director of the Nanobioelectronics &amp\; Biosen
 sors Group at Institut Català de Nanociencia i Nanotecnologia (ICN2). Aft
 er his PhD (1991) at Tirana University (Albania)\, in the topic of Ion-Sel
 ective-Electrodes (ISEs) Dr. Merkoçi worked as postdoc and senior resear
 cher/invited professor in the field of nanobiosensors and lab-on-a-chip te
 chnologies in Italy\, Spain\, USA and since 2006 at ICN2. Prof. Merkoçi r
 esearch is focused on the design and application of cutting edge nanotechn
 ology and nanoscience based sensors to be used as cost efficient globally 
 deployable mobile diagnostics platforms. These nanobiosensors involve inte
 gration of biological molecules (DNA\, antibodies\, cells and enzymes) and
  other (bio)receptors with micro- and nanostructures/motors and are applie
 d in diagnostics\, environmental monitoring or safety and security. He has
  published around 280 peer review research papers (IF WOS 55\; GS 65)\, su
 pervised 27 PhD students and has been invited to give plenary lectures and
  keynote speeches in around 150 occasions in various countries. He is co-f
 ounder of two spin-off companies\, PaperDrop dedicated to nanodiagnostics 
 and GraphenicaLab to electronic printing.\n\nRecent publications\nEden Mor
