Scopul nostru este sprijinirea şi promovarea cercetării ştiinţifice şi facilitarea comunicării între cercetătorii români din întreaga lume.
Prof. Dan Nicolau, holds a Chair in Bionanoengineering in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Electronics at the University of Liverpool. Dan has a PhD in Chemical Engineering (1992) and and a MEng in Polymer Science & Engineering (1979) from Politehnica University at Bucharest; and a MS in Cybernetics, Informatics & Statistics (1990) from the Academy of Economic Studies at Bucharest. He published 90 contributions in peer-reviewed scientific journals, a similar number of full papers in conference proceedings and 6 book chapters. He co-edited one book on microarray technology and applications, edited or co-edited the proceedings of 15 conferences (out of 20 that he chaired from 2000) and was the Guest Editor of an issue of Biosensors & Bioelectronics. He is also an Editorial Board member of Journal of Bionanotechnology. DN is also a Professorial Fellow at Centre for Green Chemistry at Monash University, Melbourne, Australia and a Member of the Academy of Romanian Scientists and Engineers Prof. Nicolau was the first principal investigator of 11 major research projects from 2000 (when he joined academia after many years in industrial and corporate R&D), totalling approx Ł1.5mil (equivalent), 30% of which from international funding institutions. He is a Fellow of the International Society of Optical Engineering (SPIE). Dan�s present research aggregates around three themes: (i) micro/nano-structured surfaces for micro/nano-arrays fabricated via classical microlithography, micro-ablation and Atomic Force Microscopy; (ii) dynamic micro/nanodevices, such as microfluidics/lab-on-a-chip and devices based on protein molecular motors, with applications in diagnosis, drug discovery and Biocomputation devices; (iii) intelligent-like behaviour of microorganisms in confined spaces, which manifests itself in the process of survival and growth. Professor Nicolau represents the University of Liverpool in a large FP6 integrated project (Charged Particle Nanotechnology) focusing on applications of nanofabricated structures in a variety of applications, including biomimetic surfaces.
