All the members of the Group of Nanoparticles and Nanocomposites participated in the group Christmas meeting by bringing nice chocolates, minerals (Bismuth and Calcite), origami stars, Christmas plants (Poinsettia and Mistletoe) and Christmas cards. The last group meeting of the year 2015!
We wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy 2016!
Let the Nano be with you! ***
Anna May has secured a Juan de la Cierva-Formación fellowship and has started a Postdoc in our group. Welcome!
Fabrizio is a Ph.D. candidate at the University Jaume I of Castellón. He has been with us for a month obtaining exciting results on new synthetic method for up-converting colloids.
Qianzhe has secured a CSC scholarship and he has started a PhD thesis in our group under de supervision of Martí Gich.
Last picts of Siming at the office with Laura. Siming is going back to China tomorrow. We will miss you a lot!!! BEST wishes from the NN Group.
Last pict of 
Pengfei and colleagues before flying tonight to US. He will start a post-doc at NIST in Washington DC. Best luck Pengfei, we will miss you
Marie Sklodowska- Curie Individual Fellowship (Call MSCA IF 2015) is open offering multiple opportunities to experienced researchers to return and reintegrate in Europe.
There are 8 scientific areas established for MSCA. Our group offers 3 interdisciplinar projects under this framework (see attachments)
1.Field of PHYSICS, Optoelectronics in room-temperature multiferroic iron oxide.
2. Field of CHEMISTRY, Engineering novel magnetic nano-biomaterials to address tissue repair guided by angiogenesis.
3.Field of LIFE SCIENCE, Assessing nanoparticles in 3D biological environments, from cell culture to C. elegans.
If you are interested, please contact us and we will assist you.
IMPORTANT, DEADLINE IS 10 SEPTEMBER 2015!!
Begining of June, we welcomed Luisa Barrera in our group!
She is a third year at MIT student from the Materials Science and Engineering Department. She will stay with us until August working with Dr. Anna Roig and Dr. Anna Laromaine, on bacterial cellulose nanocomposites to be used as photocatalysts.
We hope she enjoys it a lot!!
Fourth International Conference on Multifunctional, Hybrid and Nanomaterials (Hybrid Materials 2015) in Sitges (near Barcelona), Spain | 9 – 13 March 2015
To know more about the group activities:
We are happy to welcome Raluca Deac in the Group. Raluca is a second year PhD student in Chemistry from Babes-Bolayi University in Romania. She will spend 4 months with us and will be working in sol-gel materials for heavy metals sensors together with Laura A, Pengfei and Marti. Enjoy the stay!!!
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.
