Prof. Luisa de Cola visits us (19th Feb)

luisa da colaMartí Gich invited Prof. de Cola to visit the ICMAB and to give seminar. We were delighted to listen to her latest research. She also had the opportunity to talk with several other groups.

Luisa De Cola is full Professor at the Institut de Science et d’Ingénierie Supramoléculaires (I.S.I.S.), Université de Strasbourg, chair of Supramolecular and (bio)Materials Chemistry. She is also part-time scientist at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Institute of Nanotechnology.

Elisa Carenza and Muling Zeng represented ICMAB at Nobel Campus “Chemistry for Life”.

nobel campusLast 1st to 4th of July took place in Tarragona the Nobel Campus “Chemistry for Life”. ICMAB was represented by two students Elisa Carenza and Muling Zeng.

They had the chance to interact with Nobel Laureates as Sidney Altman, Ryoji Noyori, Barry Sharpless, Aaron Ciechanover, Richard R. Schrock y Ada E.Yonath.

Prof. Ada E. Yonath was appointed as mentor of Elisa Carenza and Muling Zeng. They had the opportunity to present their work to Prof. Ada E. Yonath and she provided feedback and advice for their future career.

 Overall some extraordinary scientific days!
