  3. 3. Using Soft-X-Rays to study the organization of immune cells: T cells and synaptic contacts
    Noa Martin-Cofreces (Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria Instituto Princesa)
    18/01/2024, 14:45

    The metabolic activity of T cells involves the control of cellular proteostasis, including gene transcription, protein translation, de novo protein folding, post-translational modifications, secretion, degradation and recycling. Some of these steps are regulated by the chaperonin complex CCT, which is involved in the correct folding of certain proteins. By limiting CCT levels with siRNA in...

  4. 2. Multilength Scale Imaging of Cement Hydration
    Prof. Miguel Ángel García Aranda (Univ. Malaga)
    18/01/2024, 15:15

    Portland cements are environmentally contentious, accounting for ≈7% of anthropogenic CO2 emissions. If cement production is considered a country, it would be the third emitter just after China and USA. Hence, developing concretes with lower embodied carbon contents is central to maintaining our well-being. The main drawback of the most ambitious proposals for sustainable low-carbon cements is...

  5. 4. Exploring 3D Magnetism through Multi-length Scale Imaging: Unveiling New Frontiers
    Sandra Ruiz Gomez (Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids)
    18/01/2024, 15:45

    Three-dimensional nanomagnetic systems, featuring novel and unconventional spin textures, offer an exciting platform to explore new magnetic phenomena, and also offers possibilities for the development of more efficient, capable and multifunctional technologies. However, harnessing these effects requires an understanding of the fundamental properties and behaviour.
    The experimental study of...

  8. 7. New opportunities for pharmacology on Alba II
    José Fernando Díaz Pereira (CIB-Margarita Salas)
    18/01/2024, 17:05

    Drug development relies on a thorough understanding of the structural parameters governing drug/target interactions and the structural effects resulting from drug binding in the target structure. The Unit for the Development of New Chemical, Biological, and Immunological Drugs aims (among other targets) to design and optimize compounds targeting microtubules, essential cellular polymers...

  9. 8. Challenges and opportunities for machine learning in XAS data interpretation
    Janis Timoshenko (FHI Berlin MPG)
    18/01/2024, 17:35

    The last decade witnessed rapid development in data science and machine learning (ML) methods, which are finding more and more applications across diverse fields, and make a dramatic impact also on the processing of spectroscopic data. In particular, the application of unsupervised and supervised ML methods provides new opportunities for detecting subtle fingerprints of structural changes in...

  10. 10. Mapping the neuronal circuits for smell with light, X-rays and electrons
    Carles Bosch Piñol (The Francis Crick Institute, London, UK)
    18/01/2024, 18:25

    Integrating physiology and structure at the neuronal circuit scale can provide a mechanistic understanding on how that circuit works. The glomerular columns in the mouse olfactory bulb contain the first synapse of the olfactory sensory pathway, through a circuit that is compact, modular and accessible to optophysiology setups. A correlative multimodal imaging pipeline that combines in vivo...

  12. 11. Role of ALBA in Catalysis
    Patricia Concepcion (Instituto de Tecnología Quimica,UPV-CSIC)
    18/01/2024, 18:55

    Commercial like catalysts are very complex systems due to the interplay of different parameters which complicate the understanding of the active site. To this we have to add the dynamic behaviour of the catalyst as well as possible structural catalyst modifications due to reaction conditions which may take place at the surface or even at the subsurface or bulk level of the catalyst influencing...
