Levkin Group on KIT Open Day

On June 24. 2017, KIT invited for an Open Day. In total over 35.000 people visited the large research facilities in campus north. The KIT open day was a full success and we appreciated the possibility to present our work.

Our group presented functionalized superhydrophilic, superhydrophobic surfaces and array patterns of different geometries. Visitors could interactively test different surface wettabilities by pipetting water onto the different functionalized substrates. Thanks to all the visitors for the interest and the many questions! Our group members were enthusiastically organizing the event and enjoyed the open day very much.

Aquarray to be funded by the "EXIST Forschungstransfer" programme

The project "Aquarray: Miniaturization of biological screenings based on Droplet Microarrays" will be funded by the EXIST Forschungstransfer programme. The EXIST programme is competitive grant supported by the European Social Fund (ESF), European Union (EU) and the Bundesministerium für Wirtschaft und Energie (BMWi). The goal of the project is to support the foundation of our spin-off project Aquarray: www.aquarray.com Congratulations to Anna, Simon and Konstantin for this success!
