Huge participation of N&N group in 11F activities!
A huge number of activities were organized this year to celebrate Women in Science Day, which is the 11th of February. This year it was the fifth anniversary of the 11F initiative, and four of our group members went virtually to different schools to talk about how they became scientists and to show them important women scientist figures.
Hot off the press: new paper in Microchimica Acta!
We are happy to announce that our paper “Accurate iron quantification in colloids and nanocomposites by a simple UV-Vis protocol” has been recently published in the journal Microchimica Acta.
The study has been carried out by N&N Group members Miquel Torras and Anna Roig, as well as former members Carlos Moya and Gustavo Pasquevich.
Hot off the press: new paper in ACS Omega!
New article “From Silver Plates to Spherical Nanoparticles: Snapshots of Microwave-Assisted Polyol Synthesis” authored by Miquel Torras and Anna Roig has been published in ACS Omega. The article is available here.
Miquel awarded for his oral contribution at E-MRS Fall Meeting in Warsaw
Miquel Torras, PhD candidate at N&N Group, attended the E-MRS Fall Meeting held at Warsaw University of Technology (Warsaw, Poland) from 16th to 19th September 2019.
His oral contribution was titled “Mechanistic insights on fast microwave-assisted polyol synthesis of silver nanoparticles with controlled size” and it was awarded with the 3rd best oral talk of his symposium (Q Nanoparticles: advances in synthesis, characterization, theoretical modelling, and applications).
Congratulations Miquel!
Miquel Torras received an Extraordinary Master Prize!
Miquel Torras received an Extraordinary Master Prize from the University of Barcelona for his excellent marks during his MSc in Applied Materials Chemistry in this university (2016-2017). The ceremony took place last Tuesday, January 29, presided by the rector, Joan Elias. The University of Barcelona awarded, in the same ceremony, the honorary doctorate to two distinguished figures of European law: Luigi Ferrajoli, author of the relation between democracy and law, and Luciano Vandelli, first authority on administrative law and territorial organization.
Congratulations Miquel, you rock!
Miquel Torras at the 3rd International Conference on Polyol Mediated Synthesis
25th-27th of June 2018
Miquel Torras, PhD student at the N&N group, travelled to Madrid to attend the 3rd International Conference on Polyol Mediated Synthesis (ICPMS) held at the Instituto de Ciencia de Materiales de Madrid (ICMM). Miquel presented the talk “Fast and Simple Microwave Synthesis of Multicomponent Gold Nanoparticles”.
Good job Miquel!
Carlos and Miquel attended a TEM course
Miquel Torras and Carlos Moya attended the Transmission Electronic Microscopy (TEM) course given by UAB Microscopy service. During this training they learned fundamentals and modes of electronic microscopy. They also focused on the preparation of both materials and life science samples. In practical seasons, they learned how to align an electronic microscope for low and high resolution imaging. In addition, they did diffraction mode and also Electronic Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS).

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.
