IRIS Lab

IRISLab is our name.
Infra-Red Imaging and Spectroscopy is our game.

[IRIS Lab @IRISLabUA]

We are so excited for #IRISLab member Ana Pacheco de Oliveira who will be presenting her research at her Alma Mater! Ana will be discussing her findings regarding amyloid aggregation in Alzheimer’s disease using Raman and O-PTIR microscopy. 🔬👩🏿‍🔬🧪

📣Shout out 📣to one of the #irislab Spring 23 grads! Lael graduated with a BS in Physics and Mathematics. He will be attending the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the fall as a Physics PhD student. He plans to research experimental particle physics! 🎓

[IRIS Lab @IRISLabUA]

Meet one of the newest #irislab undergraduate researchers: Zach Socha! He is a Mathematics and Physics double major from Saline, MI. He enjoys spending time with his triplet brothers and younger sister. He plays soccer, baseball, basketball, and golf. Welcome to the group, Zach!

We had a great week at #ACSFall2022! #IRISLab group members Ana, Brooke, and Hasan presented their current research at the Advances in Spectroscopy poster session! @AmerChemSociety

[IRIS Lab @IRISLabUA]

Sid also represented #IRISLab in Chicago at #ACSFall2022. He presented his work on Identifying Structural Heterogeneity of Amyloid Aggregates by Nanoscale AFM-IR. Keep up the good work! @AmerChemSociety

#IRISLab group members Brooke (left) and Abby (right) were both honored at the @UAChemistry awards ceremony earlier this month. Way to go! 👏🏻 🔬

[IRIS Lab @IRISLabUA]

Congrats to #IRISLab group members Abby and Savannah! They both received the Randall Undergraduate Research Award!! @UofAlabama @ua_our #AlzheimersResearch #IRIS

The Ghosh group at U. Alabama have used AFM-IR spectroscopy to provide new insights into the structure of tau aggregates. Morphologically similar fibrils exhibit structural polymorphism and mature fibrils can contain antiparallel beta sheets!
