Th is is a great possibility to learn hosting skills in friendly environment and create connections for future. Everyone is welcome to join\, BioCity T urku will offer the lunch.\n\nIf you got interested\, please send an email to biocityturku@bioscience.fi\n\n \;\n\nThe Minteer Group focuses on improving the abiotic-biotic interface between biocatalysts and electrode surfaces for enhanced bioelectrocatalysis. These biocatalysts include micr obial cells\, organelles (mitochondria and thylakoid membranes)\, redox pr oteins\, and oxidoreductase enzymes. We design electrode structures for en hanced flux at electrode surfaces for biosensor and biofuel cell applicati ons. The group utilizes a variety of electroanalytical techniques (linear polarization\, cyclic voltammetry\, differential pulse voltammetry\, diffe rential pulse amperometry)\, as well as a variety of biological and spectr oscopic techniques to accomplish these goals. The group also has an active program in electrocatalysis for synthetic organic electrochemistry.\n\n&n bsp\;\n\nSelected publications\n\nOlja Simoska\, Dale A. Cummings Jr.\, Er in M.
