📢 Don’t miss the 1st episode of our new podcast series! We had the pleasure of speaking to Prof. Mervyn Miles, a world-renowned AFM expert, who was among the first to recognize the potential of AFM in Life Science research! LISTEN: https://lnkd.in/g2vDTPsU 🗣️ Listen to his charming recollections of how a chance meeting with Dr. Heinrich Rohrer, co-winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics for the development of STM, influenced the course of his work. 🔬 Mervyn talks about the technology and history of AFM, from the early beginnings to Dr. Toshio Ando’s groundbreaking work on high-speed AFM. He also speaks about future trends, from AI machine learning to applications in biomedicine. Prof. Miles is Head of the Nanophysics and Soft Matter Group at the University of Bristol, an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Microscopical Society, and a Royal Society Wolfson Research Merit Award holder. #nanotechnology #lifesciences #microscopy #optics

💬 Let’s talk about nanoelectrical DataCube #AFM modes. Bruker’s proprietary DataCube modes use FastForce Volume to collect a force–distance spectrum at every pixel in a 2D array, including a hold or dwell segment at contact. Ramping an electrical parameter (e.g., AC or DC bias, frequency, etc.) during the hold segment at each pixel can generate an electrical spectrum at each pixel which can be analyzed and reconstructed into a multidimensional dataset. Image slices or points of interest can be extracted from that dataset as needed. This forms the basis of #nanoelectrical DataCube (DCUBE) modes, giving rise to the following modes (and more!): This forms the basis of nanoelectrical DataCube (DCUBE) modes, giving rise to the following modes (and more!): 🔽 DCUBE-TUNA 🔽 DCUBE-SSRM 🔽 DCUBE-SCM 🔽 DCUBE-sMIM 🔽 DCUBE-PFM 🔽 DCUBE-SECM Want to learn more about nanoelectrical DataCube modes?

🧬 Join us and our special guest speaker Dr. Maxim Molodtsov from The Francis Crick Institute, UK, for this webinar on using the Nobel Prize-winning Optical Tweezers (OT) technique to study DNA. Register: https://lnkd.in/gVMwFAQ4 🔬 This webinar will include a LIVE demo where we will use the NanoTracker 2 OT to perform a DNA stretching experiment and measure the forces involved in DNA folding and unfolding. Register today. 📈 OT enable the non-invasive, nm-precise manipulation of sub-cellular structures, proteins, molecules, and nanoparticles. By simultaneously applying and quantifying forces in the piconewton range, they provide unprecedented insights into life’s fundamental building blocks. 📣 In his talk “Molecular Mechanics of DNA Rearrangements During the Cell Cycle”, Maxim will speak about studying the forces involved in the molecular mechanisms underlying the 3D organization and physical rearrangements of DNA during the cell cycle, crucial factors in gene regulation, repair, recombination, and cell division. #photonics #molecularbiology #dna #optics
