Welcoming Jiban Mondal to our Lab!
Jiban Mondal, new PhD student joined our Lab.
Jiban’s research will focus on developing a plasmonic nanopore system to enhance optical signal detection for full-length protein sensing. His work will integrate opto-electrical data collection (OptiPore) to improve signal resolution and enable more precise protein characterization.
Welcome to our team, Jiban, and best of luck!

Celebrating the Festive Season at Meller Lab!
Today, we joyfully welcomed the New Year 2025, reflecting on the past and looking forward to a bright future.
As part of our celebrations, we exchanged gifts during a spirited Secret Santa, lit a candle in honor of Hanukkah, and celebrated Christmas together. Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!
Lab retreat in Carmel mountains, 2024
This year’s lab retreat was a refreshing escape to the scenic trails of Little Switzerland in Carmel mounatains. We began the day with a light breakfast and coffee, afterwards we had a morning hike surrounded by stunning views. Along the way, we enjoyed a fun group game that strengthened our team spirit.
For lunch, we headed to Nura's Kitchen, a cozy Druze buffet-style restaurant in Daliat El Carmel.
The retreat was a wonderful opportunity to connect, recharge, and create lasting memories. Here's to more such moments in the year ahead!
Welcome to Meller lab, Ali Kayyal!
Ali Kayyal, new MSc student joined our Lab.
Ali’s research will focus on developing an innovative deep-learning approach for protein classification, using data derived from protein sensing and tracking experiments. This work aims to improve classification accuracy and reveal subtle patterns within protein structures and dynamics, advancing proteomic analysis.
Welcome to our team Ali and best of luck!
Our lab members in the S3IC conference in Paris
Neeraj Soni, a PhD student in our lab, along with postdocs Marzia Issorai and Sohini Pal, are currently participating in the S3IC Conference in Paris. They are engaging with leading experts in single-molecule sensors and nanosystems, presenting their research, and exchanging ideas on the latest advancements in nanotechnology.
The conference focuses on the most recent advances in micro and nano-sensing techniques that have either demonstrated single-molecule detection or that can advance or contribute towards single-molecule detection capability on sensor chips in the longer term.
