Congratulations to our Ph.D. student, Shmuel Burg, for the publication of his paper at "Biosensors". This is his 6th paper, which has been published in the framework of his Ph.D studies, and the 4th (!!!) time as the first author.
We would also like to extend special thanks to our M.Sc. alumna, Reut Ashkenazy; our Electro - optics lab manager, Dr. Meir Cohen; and our Ph.D. student, Sophie Terenteva, for their valuable contributions and support.
The paper, entitled 'Chip-Integrated Optical Modulation Biosensing with Microfluidic Background Reduction for High-Sensitivity Fluorescence Immunoassays', can be found in the Publications section, and at DOI: 10.3390/bios16110623
The Beilstein Nanotechnology Symposium took place in Limburg, Germany, on October 27–29th. The head of the Optical Imaging and Biosensing Laboratory at Bar-Ilan University, Prof. Amos Danielli, presented our lab’s research and technology in an invited lecture titled “Translating nanotechnology into diagnostics: optical modulation biosensing for ultra-sensitive biomarker detection.”
Prof. Danielli also had the pleasure of meeting colleagues in the biosensing field, including Prof. Tsuyoshi Minami and Dr. Yui Sasaki of the University of Tokyo, Japan, and Prof. Karsten Haupt of the University of Technology of Compiègne, France.
On October 5th, the Bioengineering Track at Bar-Ilan University held its annual gathering, under Prof. Amos Danielli’s leadership. The program featured scientific presentations and community engagement activities. As part of the academic program, our Ph.D. student, Sophie Terenteva, and M.Sc. student, Tom Rotman, delivered lectures showcasing recent research advancements conducted in the Optical Imaging and Biosensing Laboratory.

Prof. Danielli specializes in Electro-optics and Bio-photonics. After completing his Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in the field of optical communication at Tel Aviv University, he worked in industry for eight years and then return to the Academy. During his studies for P.hD, he developed a new technology to rapidly detect fluorescent-labeled probes at very low concentrations in homogenous solutions and continued developing it during his post-doctoral studies in Washington University, St. Louis.
In 2014, he has returned to Israel and joined the faculty of Engineering at Bar Ilan University.
During his stay in the US, he founded a company that commercializes this technology, and established connections with key figures in the fields of medical laboratory and diagnostics, and especially among troponin and heart attack specialists.
We are always happy to hear from postdocs and students at all levels (BSc., MSc. and PhD.) with various backgrounds (mathematics, engineering, physics, biology) who are interested by the kind of research we are doing. send an email to Amos.danielli2@gmail.com
