Jan. 2011: The chapter “Geometric and Electromagnetic Aspects of Fusion Pore Making” by D. Apushkinskaya, E. Apushkinsky, B. Booß-Bavnbek and M. Koch describing the application of dynamic fields in living cells appeared in “BetaSys – Systems Biology of Regulated Exocytosis in Pancreatic ß-Cells”, Springer, 2011, 505-538.

2009: We conducted two very important activities abroad. The first assignment together with Dr. Kircher (radiology) at Havard Medical in Boston and the second activity at Lund University in Malmø. In both activities magnetic particles (magnetite beads) could be transported across the cell membrane of multiple cell types between 5 to 30 minutes and without physiological incubation. The very intensive research work in Malmø was heavily supported (images and cell preparation) by Enming Zhang and Eric Rennström. Dr.Zhang and Prof. Rennström are with Lund University/CRC based in Malmø Sveden. The work is going on. See section Transporting Nano on this site.
