Title:

From Protein Adsorption to Crystallisation Tuned by Multivalent Ions (PATMI 2.0)

Duration:

01/02/2025 to 31/01/2028

Abstract / short description:

This research project delves into the relationship between protein adsorption and crystallization, with a focus on multivalent ions' influence. Divided into specific work packages, the study aims to understand the kinetics and mechanisms of nucleation at interfaces. Key questions involve the impact of bulk phase behavior, interface properties, and the conversion process from adsorption to crystallization. Utilizing advanced techniques such as QCM-D, ellipsometry, neutron / X-ray reflectometry, and GIXD, the project aims to unravel the complexities of protein behavior at interfaces. This project promises valuable insights into protein interactions and nucleation phenomena.
