Anna Roig invited to the Nano2016 conference in Buenos Aires, Argentina

nano2016-buenos aires

Anna Roig is in Buenos Aires this week, to attend the Nano 2016 conference. The topic of the conference is “Surfaces and Nanostructured Materials”

Anna will give a plenary lecture on Friday, May 13th (9:00 – 10:00 am), entitled “Bio-identity of protein-coated spions evaluated in cells and in vivo by the C. elegans model”

Before the conference, there is a school for graduate students and young researchers, in which she will give a lecture on “Introduction to medical imaging techniques and their relationship with nanotechnology”. This will be on Monday, May 9th (9:00 – 11:30 am).

Apart from the conference, Anna will take the opportunity to give three seminars in three different centers:

Anna Roig will present at NanoBio&Med2015

P1020705

NanoBio&Med 2015 to be held in Barcelona 18-20 Nov  is going to present the most recent international developments in the field of Nanobiotechnology and Nanomedicine and will provide a platform for multidisciplinary communication, new cooperations and projects to participants from both science and industry. Emerging and future trends of the converging fields of nanotechnology, biotechnology and medicine will be discussed among industry, academia, governmental and non-governmental institutions.

Anna will talk on the bio-identity of albumin-iron oxide nanoparticles on the 19th Nov at 16:20 h.

Next week Anna Roig lectures at EPFL

 
Anna will give a lecture in the “Advances in Materials” seminar series at the Institute of Materials of the
Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL)

Engineering Iron Oxide Nanoparticles towards Clinical Applications
Anna Roig
Materials Science Institute of Barcelona 

Barcelona, Spain
Monday, October 27, 2014, in lecture hall MX F1 at 1:15 pm
 
Abstract: Iron oxide nanoparticles are becoming an important class of materials in nanomedicine.  They can be used for imaging as contrast agents in MRI as well as for therapeutical purposes and are FDA approved. The talk will start with a brief introduction to iron oxide nanoparticles, a description of the characteristics that make them attractive in the health sector and some of their recently reported biomedical applications. It will then be followed by the workflow we have undertaken to validate in-house synthesized magnetic nanoparticles and nanocapsules to promote angiogenesis as a brain neurorepair therapy after stroke.(1,2)
