What if you could map the chemistry inside a human cell – without fluorescent labels or stains? Cells are chemically crowded, spatially complex and notoriously difficult to interpret using conventional infrared microscopy alone. Professor Kamilla Malek and her colleagues are developing a clearer view by combining FTIR spectroscopy, submicron O-PTIR microscopy, Raman imaging and advanced chemometrics to transform overlapping vibrational spectra into meaningful maps of cellular composition.     DATE & TIME When: Thursday, September 17th, 2026 Time: 11:00 - 12:00 (CET)

Materials degradation is a critical challenge affecting the performance, safety, and lifetime of assets across energy, nuclear, aerospace, defense, battery, transportation, and industrial sectors. Whether operating in aqueous environments, aggressive chemical processes, electrochemical systems, or high-temperature conditions, materials continuously interact with their surroundings, leading to complex degradation mechanisms that can ultimately impact reliability and operational costs.   DATE & TIME 📆 Tuesday, July 7th, 2026 🕔 10-11 AM  or 5-6 PM (CET)
