文部科学省大学間連携共同教育推進事業「未来像を自ら描く電気エネルギー分野における実践的人材の育成」
Cells Dancing to Maxwell’s Equations [7月6日（水）九州大学＠博多]
2016/05/30
【科目種別】電気エネルギー講座Ⅱ（英語科目）
■講 師： Ronald Pethig
■ご所属： The University of Edinburgh（英国）
名誉教授
■演 題： Cells Dancing to Maxwell’s Equations
■日 時： 平成 28 年 7 月 6 日（水） 15：30～17：00
■場 所： TKP博多駅前シティセンター カンファレンス6

■主 催： 九州大学大学院システム情報科学研究院 電気システム工学部門
■共 催： 九州パワーアカデミー
■申込/お問合せ：大学間連携事務局 jimu[at]renkei.ees.kyushu-u.ac.jp
■概要
This talk is intended for a general scientific audience. It will show, with the aid of videos, how Maxwell’s theories of dimensional analysis and electromagnetism continue to influence the biomedical applications of bioelectronics. This is particularly the case for the study of the electrokinetic (dielectrophoresis and electrorotation) properties of cells, bacteria and viruses. More than 150 years ago Maxwell gave the first demonstration of colour photography to an astonished audience. The basic principle of this has been incorporated into the world’s smallest TV screen, and the technology developed for this has the potential to be adapted to study the functioning of neural networks. Aspects of Maxwell’s life (He was born and studied at the University of Edinburgh) will be threaded into the talk.
