Understanding energetic pathways for the construction of electrochemically controlled biointerfaces
This webinar explores the construction of electrochemically controlled biointerfaces, focusing on understanding energetic pathways from the molecular level up to whole organisms. It highlights how combining photosynthesis research, electrochemistry, and materials science enables the development of innovative antifouling surfaces and bioelectrodes. The presentation also discusses the use of advanced analytical tools like QCM to investigate these complex biological-electrochemical systems

Presentation by Dr Sivan Nir-Luz
Dr Sivan Nir-Luz obtained my PhD from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, where she specialized in designing and fabricating nanomaterials with biological functions. Her research focused on developing peptide-based materials, that prevented biofouling, the establishment of biomass on surfaces. She continued as a postdoc at the same group and developed anti-viral surfaces. Then, she moved to the industry, and took a position at Collplant Ltd. where she formulated bioinks for 3D printed organs and assessed their biocompatibility in tissue models.
