2. Optical Functionalization of Transparent Wood Biocomposites
Abstract : Transparent wood (TW) biocomposites combines load-bearing properties with high transmittance of light. TW consists of a reinforcing wood substrate that has been infiltrated with a polymer matrix. TW can be combined with additives so that new multifunctional materials are obtained. READ MORE

3. Recognition and Visualization of Nucleic Acids
Abstract : The work presented in this Thesis focuses on the interaction between nucleic acids and small molecules, as well as binding or incorporation of reporter chromophores into nucleic acids. The results could help in studying and understanding processes that are fundamental to describe mechanisms behind a genetic disorder. READ MORE

5. Fluorescent Probes and Protein Misfolding: Methods and Applications
Abstract : Protein misfolding is a frequently occurring event in living cells and without the quality control, the consequences are disasterous. In this thesis, we studied protein misfolding in vitro by employing a variety of fluorophores, to either detect the highly ordered aggregates of intrinsically disordered proteins/peptides or slight misfolding of a natively folded protein.
