New organic materials with photo-activable antibacterial properties
Photodynamic therapy exploits the combined action of three elements, a sensitizing agent (the drug), light and oxygen to treat various kinds of tumors and diseases or to eradicate microbial pathogens. The photosensitizer agent is first administrated and becomes active only when irradiated with light...

MEDiPRO (MEDical imaging PROcessing)
There are existing tools available (e.g. Analyze) but are based solely on brain atlas information, and take no advantage of current active contour based solutions. Active contours though take advantage of image information and by appropriate blending with prior knowledge inside their formulation the...
Experimental test bed station for control design of heterogeneous robot-sensor networks
An advanced research platform for development, testing and verification of control and spatial navigation algorithms for wireless, multi-agent robot-sensor networked systems. Concept of the corresponding experimental test-bed system (with hierarchy-distributed structure) adapted for laboratory (indo...
