IMPETUX in Keys to Japan program:

Keys-to-Japan-logo12

 

Impetux has been chosen for the 2015 edition of the program: Keys to Japan, an European Commission-funded initiative.

Another important step for our internationalization strategy !

“3 high potential EU SMEs, from Italy, France and Spain, have won the “Keys to Japan” competition, thus successfully securing their spot in the project. This is a European Commission funded initiative, run on a yearly basis and managed by the EUJapan Centre. Through this scheme, companies which are considering marketing a product or a service in Japan can benefit of a detailed and personalised market entry plan, prepared by JMEC (http://www.jmec.gr.jp). Each plan is worth €10,000 and the cost is covered by the EU-Japan Centre.”

Time dependence of trap position (top), force signal (middle) and Ca2+ fluorescence signal (bottom) recorded during a membrane tether pulling experiment. The force and Ca2+ ion channel activity signals exhibit negative correlation.

Force and displacement data for two beads stimulated at frequencies of 4 Hz and 0.25 Hz. The progressive reduction of the beads displacement is in concomitancy with an increase of the applied force and loading rate.
