On the 19th of August 2018, the paper “Els materials que canviaran el món” was published in La Vanguardia. Many ICMAB researchers, including Anna Roig from the N&N group, were interviewed and explained the new materials they are developing at ICMAB. Anna talked about nanoparticles and bacterial nanocellulose.

Anna Laromaine, from the N&N group, Núria Sánchez-Coll, from CRAG (Center for Research in Agricultural Genomics) and other co-workers have developed an effective method for plant tissue regeneration that involves the use of a bacterial nanocellulose. This study appears on the monthly newsletter from the Consejo Superior de Investigciones Cientificas (CSIC) together with the work from other ICMAB researchers. This project called PLANT HEALING was funded by Fons Europeus de Desenvolupament Regional, Departament d’Empresa I Coneixement de la Generalitat de Catalunya with 20.000€.

Last June 2017, Anna May and Sole Roig filmed a video for the JoVe contest: Film your research. Although the video on entitled “A Story on Bacterial Cellulose” didn’t make it to the final, we have just received the notice that it is one of the Top 15 critically acclaimed videos by the jury!
The N&N group participates in the @NextGEM_eu project, for which we prepared this video explaining how we work with c.elegans. 🪱
👉 Dr. @PolAlonso1 explains how we use these nematodes and why they are useful for assessing biological effects.
