These advantages stem from organic mixed ionic-electronic conductors (OMIECs) that enable simultaneous transport of electronic charges and ionic species, which can be direct processed via electropolymerization. This technique offers precise control over polymer film thickness and morphology, facilitating the formation of nanostructures and enabling selective patterning on individual channels without complex photolithography, simplifying OECT fabrication and integration. In this talk, I will discuss the performance of OECTs using various electropolymerized channel materials, starting with PEDOT for dopamine detection, followed PEDOT:N<sub>3</sub>, a clickable OMIEC variant whose threshold voltage can be finely tuned through control of the electropolymerization parameters, and finally P-tri-DPA for zinc ion detection, achieving low limits of detection and high specificity for Zn²⁺ ions. These findings highlight the potential of electropolymerization and OMIEC materials engineering in developing advanced bioelectronic devices.</p>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-05-12T14:28:49", "last_modification_date": "2026-05-12T14:28:49", "link_label": "", "link_url": "", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "B1-6", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==B1%206%20272.043", "url_online_room": "https://epfl.zoom.us/j/66316100683?pwd=64CIcLzsW9F1aqwdTsOBlYp6DjbjjC.1", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "<a href=\"https://www.ims-bordeaux.fr/researchers-and-publications/thuau-damien/\">Prof Damien Thuau</a>", "organizer": "<a href=\"http://people.epfl.ch/giuseppe.schiavone\">Giuseppe Schiavone</a>", "contact": "<a href=\"http://people.epfl.ch/niels.lion\">Niels Lion</a>", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 2, "fr_label": "Public averti", "en_label": "Informed public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/120723/", "category": { "id": 1, "code": "CONF", "fr_label": "Conférences - Séminaires", "en_label": "Conferences - Seminars", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/347/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/392/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 71376, "title": "EPFL Latsis Symposium 2026: “Decoding the Cell: Modeling, Predicting, and Engineering Cellular States”", "slug": "epfl-latsis-symposium-2026-decoding-the-cell-model", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/epfl-latsis-symposium-2026-decoding-the-cell-model", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32724/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32724/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/32724/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-10-29", "end_date": "2026-10-30", "start_time": null, "end_time": null, "description": "<p>The <strong>EPFL Latsis Symposium 2026<em>: “Decoding the Cell: Modeling, Predicting, and Engineering Cellular States”</em></strong> will be held on <strong>October 29-30, 2026</strong>, at the <strong>Olympic Museum in Lausanne</strong>.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThis international gathering will bring together leading scientists in single-cell analysis, computational modeling, and cellular engineering to explore how recent breakthroughs in multi-omics technologies, predictive algorithms, and synthetic biology are reshaping our understanding of cellular function.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThrough interdisciplinary talks and discussions, the symposium will spotlight advances in single-cell multi-modal data integration, predictive modeling of cell identity and behavior, and the engineering of synthetic cell states.
