‘We want to give Poles one million additional years of healthy life.’ Interview with Łukasz Osowski [#LudziePG, part 5]

ossowski
Together with his colleagues, he amazed the world by creating Ivona - the best speech synthesizer on the market at that time. Currently, he is working on another product that is to revolutionize health habits: initially of Poles, and then of people around the world. We are talking to Łukasz Osowski, a graduate of the Gdańsk Tech ETI Faculty and CEO of Lab4Life, about the road to success, ambition, happiness and the consequences of the decisions made.

Maciej Dzwonnik, Gdańsk Tech spokesman:  The world heard about you shortly after you graduated from Gdańsk Tech, around 2006, when you and your team created Ivona - the best speech synthesizer at that time. It turned out then that a small team of engineers from Gdańsk managed to build a better product than the giants from IBM.

How to verify that your dog is not human? Scientists from Gdańsk are working on it

Albert's team
Albert is a dog (Canis familiaris), but he is not aware of it. Moreover, he loves human food (and beer), watching movies online, sleeping in bed, though he shouldn't be doing all of these things. To convince him of this, an interdisciplinary team of scientists from Gdańsk University of Technology, the University of Gdańsk and the Medical University of Gdańsk, i.e. universities making up the Fahrenheit University Association, designed a test procedure that allows for quick detection of the DEFB1 gene unique to humans in a saliva sample. The solution may not only affect the bad habits of Albert the pug, but also prove useful in diagnostics and forensics.

Currently used methods that allow to determine the concentration of the human genome usually require duplication of DNA material (e.g. in the polymerase chain reaction - PCR), which makes them complicated and time-consuming, and the result often depends on human error - emphasize Gdańsk scientists in the article entitled ‘Multisine impedimetric probing of biocatalytic reactions for label-free detection of DEFB1 gene: How to verify that your dog is not human?’ on the pages of Sensors & Actuators: B. Chemical (IF = 7.1).
