While working on a grant application response letter, I came across some interesting information about Beauveria bassiana. This fungus naturally occurs in soils worldwide and acts as a parasite on various arthropods, causing white muscardine disease. It belongs to the group of entomopathogenic fungi.

Beauveria bassiana is used/investiaged/considered as a biological insecticide to control several pests, including termites, thrips, whiteflies, aphids, and various beetles.

It's fascinating how nature provides solutions that can benefit both humans and the environment.

#Beauveria

Europe doubles down on research competitiveness with a major boost to #HorizonEurope:

💶€95.5B invested between 2021–2027
💶€175B proposed for 2028–2034

Backed by #ChooseEurope, which aims to attract top global talent, the programme will boost EU competitiveness & improve the well-being of its people.

What does it mean for you as a researcher?

📃Simpler processes
💶Speedier grants
🧪Strengthened research infrastructure

How would a signal look like from our micro-ring resonator #MRR #biosensor?

We observe a spectrum in a wavelength range around 1.55 µm by coupling the laser radiation into an array of five MRRs, see bottom figure. It is notable that each MRR has a curved triangular shape of different size this causes the resonance peak of each MRR to occur at different positions in the spectrum.

In the spectrum range investigated, we observed four groups of resonance peaks corresponding to four standing waves occurring to each of the five rings.

Determining the perimeter of the ring was challenging. I used #ImageJ to draw a polygon that approximated the triangular shape and measured the perimeter. Then, with the use of the formulas obtained from P. Steglich, et al(https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/9568878), it was possible to determine the effective refractive index nff and the order m of the standing wave.
