Raluca-Ioana van Staden - Best Woman Inventor in 2010

 The Romanian Raluca-Ioana van Staden won this year the Golden Trophy of the World Intellectual Property for the Best Woman Inventor at the International Exhibition of Inventions in Geneva.
She invented a sensor that determines the existence of cancer in humans at the molecular level. Astonishing is that the sensor detects cancer in less than six minutes and the estimated cost would be less than one euro. Raluca-Ioana van Staden said that lack of funding has allowed the approach of only four types of cancer, because bio-markers are very expensive and all the tests to be made require a fairly large quantity of bio-markers. The device produced on large-scale would be very easy to use, as easy as a glucometer. "We've already done experiments on various types of cancer, as ovarian, breast, gastrointestinal and prostate cancer, as well with general markers of cancer. We make a determination before the disease is triggered in the body", she said in an interview. The device can be reused, there is no danger of contamination from one person to another, and last more than six months.
Raluca-Ioana van Staden (b. Ştefan) was born on July 16, 1969, in the city of Câmpulung, Argeş County. She obtained the baccalaureate in his hometown, then she followed the college. She has a doctorate in chemistry and a masterate in music composition. Raluca-Ioana is married with the scientist Jacobus Frederick van Staden, both working in the sole laboratory for analytical technology of processes in Romania, PATLAB, located in the Institute of Electro-Chemistry and Condensed Matter in Timişoara.

Ştefan Odobleja

Ştefan Odobleja (1902 - 1978) was a Romanian scientist, one of the precursors of cybernetics. His major work, Psychologie consonantiste, first published in 1938 and 1939, in Paris, had established many of the major themes of cybernetics regarding cybernetics and systems thinking ten years before the work of Norbert Wiener was published in 1948.
He died in ignorance in some kind of home arrest imposed by the communist regime because cybernetics was declared a science of capitalist nature by the Romanian government of the mid '70s(in spite of having embraced it in the previous two decades). The academic contacts were dropped and he was under severe surveillance. His house was disconnected from electricity to prevent him to continue his writings. Even paper was scarce in his home and he used to write his thoughts on the unprinted areas of the local propaganda newspapers.
As an appreciation for his entire work of mapping the unknown territory of the consonantist psychology, cybernetics and generalized cybernetics, Ştefan Odobleja was elected posthumously an honorary member of the Romanian Academy (1990).
In 1982 a group of scientists have established the "Cybernetics Academy "Ştefan Odobleja", a scientific forum registered in Lugano, Switzerland, financed by the Romanian billionaire Prof. Dr. Iosif Constantin Drăgan.

Professor PhD Liliana Mitoseriu

Professor PhD Liliana Mitoseriu, from Alexandru Ioan Cuza University’s Faculty of Physics won the first European COST project coordinated by Romania. The project, entitled “SINGLE- AND MULTIPHASE FERROICS AND MULTIFERROICS WITH RESTRICTED GEOMETRIES (SIMUFER)” has 20 stakeholder countries, out of which 18 are members of the UE. Apart from the specific scientific activities, the SIMUFER network will finance special actions dedicated to young researchers (basic training, advanced training, summer schools, research internships, workshops, conferences, joint PhD degrees, post-doc internships).

FP7-ESF-COST (European COoperation in the field of Scientific and Technical Research) is an European instrument initiated in 1971 (to which Romania is affiliated since 1997) that supports scientific and technical cooperation of European researchers in 10 key scientific fields (http://www.mct.ro/index.php?action=view&idcat=267). The project coordinated by Romania is included in the MPNS field - Materials, Physical and Nanosciences.


Professor Liliana Mitoseriu leads the Dielectric, Feroelectric and Multiferoic Materials group, ackowledged internationally in the field of Materials Physics with applications in Microelectronics and belongs to the CARPATH Excellence Centre which was ranked first in the 2008 research centres competition (http://stoner.phys.uaic.ro/carpath.html).


The research team also includes: Phd Cristina Ciomaga (Best Doctoral Thesis in Physics Award in 2007), assistant post-graduate Lavinia Curecheriu (national representative at the European Ceramic Society competition, 4th place in 2009), post-graduate Felicia Prihor (Lot Oriel & Hammatsu Award for one of the best papers at the European Conference on Polar Dielectrics, Rome, 2008), post-graduate Nadejda Horchidan, student Raluca Frunza and student Ioana Chiuchi. In 2009 the group published 9 papers quoted in the ISI system.
