The Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) Laboratory will be open to qualified users for imaging the topography of surfaces at the sub-100 micron scale. Undergraduates and graduate students qualify by passing the Atomic Force Microscopy course in alternating D terms; occasionally graduate students can be trained starting in A term. Students typically become competent in AFM techniques in approximately one semester, although it takes about a year of constant work to evolve into a fully independent user. One should not expect research results quickly. Thus for me to train a student requires a solid commitment to the project on the part of that student's advisor.

PuraMatrix is 3DM's patented product line of synthetic self-assembling peptide hydrogels invented at MIT. PuraMatrix is the leading commcial synthetic scaffold for 3D cell culture, cancer biology, drug discovery, tissue engineering, bioproduction, and cell therapy research. PuraMatrix is composed of a simple 16 amino acid peptide monomer 1% weight/volume in tissue culture water, which self-assembles in the presence of salt to form ECM-scale nanofibers, that in turn self-assemble into extremely stable, injectable, biocompatible and biodegradable hydrogels. The gels work by coating surfaces or encapsulating cells, allowing for the proper three dimensional (3-D) culture across most cell types, including cell-based assays for neurite outgrowth, angiogenesis, cell migration, cancer invasion, and hepatocyte toxicity. This reproducible integrin-free scaffold can be customized according to the desired microenvironment to closely model the in vivo milieu along with growth factors, cytokines, integrin sequences, and other bioactive molecules.

Long description

For 200 years the basic theory of obtaining electricity from the energy potential which exists between different materials has been the foundation upon which the advances have been made in technology. It is only because of this simple electrochemical fact that we have an amazing spectrum of products and facilities available to us today. Vehicles, mobile phones, camcorders, watches, laptop computers, cordless tools - the list of consumer applications is endless. Military capability and scientific developments depend upon batteries and space exploration, manned or unmanned would be impossible without them. Over this time, enormous resources of time, research and money have gone into finding the most efficient and viable materials which can give the greater power needed to open the gates for the vast range of products and developments waiting in the wings.

Many different combinations of materials and construction have been investigated and the advances which have been made in the last 30 years have been remarkable, but there is still a demand for even higher power ratings. Some of the combinations have proved effective but have proved subsequently to be dangerous to our environment and have been banned on ecological and environmental grounds.

In 1989, Ab Europositron was founded to pursue a radical new theory which had been propounded by Mr Rainer Partanen concerning one of the materials which had been investigated before but had always run into the same difficulties, namely the apparently insurmountable problem recharging a sealed cell battery using aluminium. Rainer Partanen has progressed the theory to the point of detailed specifications of cell construction, the electrochemistry involved and has registered patents covering all the necessary areas.

The fundamental basis of the Partanen technology can be applied to all formats of batteries, from tiny button batteries to high capacity stand-by power supplies. Using one of the most abundant metals available and incorporating existing manufacturing processes, this is an avenue which demands and deserves investigation to fruition.
