Our recent work about bacterial nanocellulose and stem cells, published in Small, has been featured as a press release in the ICMAB and CSIC webpages. The post explains in a comprehensive way the results of this study through an interview with Irene Anton. Enjoy the read!
The PhD fellow Irene Anton from the NN group participated in the TechTransferStories launched by the Technology Transfer unit of ICMAB. In this 20 minute-interview, Irene explains her personal experience researching in collaboration with the private sector to find medical applications for the biopolymer bacterial nanocellulose. Do not miss it!
If you missed the live version of the talk about how is the life of a nano-bio-researcher by Irene Anton-Sales, you can still watch it on youtube! Hope you enjoy it! 🙂
The science outreach activities of the NN group keep moving on! Next Wednesday 3rd of June at 12.00h you can spend a “virtual day” with the PhD fellow Irene Anton-Sales.
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.
The Spanish journal Diario Médico published an article about la Caixa INPhINIT program, highlighting the research topics of two fellows including Jan Grzelak from the NN Group. Jan explained the idea behind his project, the main goals and the current state of his research.
Between 14 and 16 May 2018, the bars of Barcelona will be full of science. Pint of Science is back in town!
The program “A researcher in your classroom” brought Anna Roig, from the N&N group, to Lliçà d’Amunt, at Institut Lliçà (Tuesday, 3 February 2018), and the ICMAB researcher Agustín Mihi to Institut Dr. Puigvert de Sant Andreu in Barcelona (Wednesday, 4 February 2018). Both audiences were secondary school students of 4t ESO.
3rd March 2018 Anna Roig participated in the debate “Coneixement i Recerca” held at the University of Vic in the context of the “Congrés Participatiu Catalunya i Futur”. This project is supported by the platform exigents.cat. The day before, she appeared on the local TV from Esplugues del Llobregat, on the program “Catalunya segle XXI-Recerca i Desenvolupament“.
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.
