Welcome on the weblog of Raphael Levy’s group!
Raphael obtained his PhD in physics at the University Louis Pasteur (France) working on polymer adsorption with the Atomic Force Microscope (2002).
He then moved to Liverpool for a post-doctoral fellowship with Dave Fernig and Mathias Brust where he designed peptides as capping agents for gold nanoparticles.
In 2006, he obtained a BBSRC David Phillips Fellowship to develop nanoparticle-based imaging in living cells.
His research focuses on nanoparticles, their structure, and applications, in particular for biological imaging. This poster (pdf, 5.1MB) was presented at the biennal BBSRC Fellows conference in September 2009. It presents an overview of the research activities in the group at the time.
In 2010, together with Wolfgang Parak, Teresa Pellegrino, Kimberly Hamad-Schifferly and Warren Chan, he organized Bionano@Nice-2011.
The Fellowhship ended in 2011 and Raphael is now a Lecturer at the University of Liverpool. His teaching includes some lectures in Quantitative Biology I, i.e. basic mathematics for first year Biology students, and Physics for Nanotechnology, for third year Chemistry students.
