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!
Celebrating Rosh Hashanah in Meller lab
As we welcome the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, our lab takes a moment to reflect on the past year and embrace the opportunities ahead.
We raised a toast to celebrate the new year together.
we wish you a sweet and fulfilling new year! Shana Tova!
Meller lab team new paper in Advanced Materials journal
Full-Length Single Protein Molecules Tracking and Counting in thin Silicon Channels
In this paper, we introduce a single-molecule method for parallel protein separation and tracking, yielding multi-dimensional and are electrophoretically separated by their mass/charge in custom-designed thin silicon channel with subwavelength height. This approach allows us to analyse thousands of individual proteins within a few minutes by tracking their motion during the migration. We demonstrate the power of the method by quantifying a cytokine panel for host-response discrimination between viral and bacterial infections.
Neeraj Soni talk at Indian Institute of Technology Mandi
Neeraj Soni, PhD student in Meller lab visited IIT Mandi and presented his PhD work , in which he talked about the feasibility of whole protein identification and sequencing through sub 5nm solid state nanopore.
Neeraj extensively discussed the biophysical characteristics associated with the single-file translocation of whole proteins, underscoring its importance in contrast to traditional methods. Additionally, he delved into inventive strategies for regulating the dynamics of the translocating molecule as it passes through nanopores.
Our lab members represented us in SMPS3 conference in Delft, the Netherlands.
Dr. Yulia Marom, Dr. Navneet Verma Chandra, Neeraj, Liran, Shilo, Noam, and Prof. Meller presented our research in single molecule sequencing. The group presented five different posters, each one on a different topic.
Meller lab won the 2022 MOST Sweden-Israel award.
Prof. Meller is among the recipients of this year’s awards - The MOST Sweden-Israel award with his colleagues at the Royal Institute of Technology, to develop novel plasmonic nanopore sensors for clinical bio molecular markers.
