Maģistra darba rezultātu sadaļā raksturoti iegūtie kompozītmateriāli, tiem tika noteikta siltumvadītspēja, veiktas materiālu mehāniskās pārbaudes, noteikta mikrobioloģiskā stabilitāte un biodegradācijas spējas…

Tracking of Autologous VSOP-Labeled Mesenchymal Stem Cells in the Sheep Brain Using 3.0 T MRI

2012

Assessment of biodistribution and monitoring of cell migration processes in vivo are essential for the safety of novel cell-based therapies for ischemic stroke and early-stage clinical trials, but are mainly lacking investigation in large animal models which are closer to the situation found in human patients. This chapter reports a series of experiments which establish a MRI-sensitive labeling procedure for autologous ovine mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) and the assessment of in vivo and in vitro detection limits of the cells at 3.0 T. Cell migration was monitored after intravenous transplantation following experimental stroke in sheep. Cell detection was feasible at 3.0 T with detection lim…

UL Institute of Clinical and Preventive Medicine

The Institute of Clinical and Preventive Medicine of the University of Latvia (UL) was founded to develop research in the fields of oncology and preventive oncology, as well as tuberculosis and septicemia; to carry out organised pilot studies to optimize cancer screening, and to carry out a unique population study in Europe for gastrointestinal cancer prevention (GISTAR). The Institute develops common patients’ with tumours and other patients’ biobanks intended to be part of the National Biobank structure. Workplaces for doctoral students, post-doctoral scientists and other new scientists are created on the basis of the Institute. Residents and students are attracted to research work. The I…

Digital contents and communication flows

MEDIAFLOWS is focused on the analysis of the changes and mutations caused by the process of digitization in the content and structures of media and in the public. The group's origin is the activity of most of its researchers since 2007, within the framework of the "Valencian Digital Media Analysis Group" (since 2007), which has resulted in the achievement of three R&D projects (financed by the Generalitat Valenciana and the University of Valencia) and an annual conference (Digital Communication Congress in the Valencian Community) that began to be held in 2009. As a result of all this, five monographs and a large number of partial publications in congresses, journals and book chapters have …

Prison of the Penitenziati

This 16th century building for a long time housed the Inquisition prisons and then the Royal Court. It collects several graffiti, living proof of the dark and terrible time of Inquisition, thanks to the meticulous work of the Palermitan ethnologist Giuseppe Pitrè, that brought them to light at the beginning of the 20th century.

Collection of Historical Instruments of Physics

This huge collection of instruments (about 500) has been collected over time since 1811, when the physicist Domenico Scinà obtained the chair of Experimental Physics. The collection includes pieces from different branches of Physics, such as mechanics, calorimetry, acoustics, electromagnetism and optics.

Precision Physics, Fundamental Interactions and Structure of Matter (Cluster of Excellence)

The Standard Model of particle physics describes nature at its most fundamental level, in terms of the basic constituents of matter. Despite its success, it fails to explain phenomena such as the existence of dark matter or the abundance of matter over antimatter. In addition, several unexplained puzzles including, for instance, the discrepancy between the experimental value and theoretical prediction of the muon anomalous magnetic moment, challenge the validity of the Standard Model and might provide first hints for “new physics”. The PRISMA+ Cluster of Excellence makes unique contributions to the investigation of the deep open questions surrounding the validity of the Standard Model. PRIS…

Palaeobiology Laboratory / European Centre of Paleontology

The Palaeobiology Laboratory team and European Centre of Palaeontology (ECP) are to become a research, education and conference centre for the University of Opole and its partners. The centre is thought of as a tailor-made place for collecting, preparation, storage and study of fossils, and is to include museum exhibits. It may also serve as an anchor in the acquisition of scientific grants within international co-operative schemes, and thus improve the success rate. We conduct research in the field of palaeobiology, organize scientific conferences (including e. g. EAVP and IMPERP) and field schools, popularize science and coordinate international Master Studies in palaeobiology programme a…

Biological environmental monitoring and bioanalitycs

The Team research since 2002 concerns the use of biological monitoring methods in assessing the state of environmental pollution. Research topics that We implement include issues related to, among others sorption properties of algae and aquatic plants and the possibility of their use in biological monitoring of heavy metal surface water pollution. We also study the possibilities of using various bioindicators, including lichens, mosses, tree bark in the monitoring of heavy metal pollution of atmospheric aerosol. Currently, we measure selected heavy metals in plants (we also mark analytes in soil, food products, human hair, invertebrates), but next year we will be measuring polycyclic aromat…

Museum of University of Opole

The idea of creating Muzeum Uniwersytetu Opolskiego, a space for storing, documenting, and exhibiting the mementoes, relics and works of art was initiated in 2012 by the Rector of the University, prof Stanisław Sławomir Nicieja. Being a biographical historian, and acting with the sense of responsibility for securing and preserving the heritage of the first institution of higher education in Opole, he decided to start storing the exhibits that testify to the scientific and cultural past of the university and can serve as data for new research and creative initiatives. There are three permanent exhibitions – one devoted to the history of the University – “Alma Mater Opoliensis”, the second to…
