ACS nano launches a virtual issue highlighting the contribution of the nanoscience community of Donostia- San Sebastián to (nano) science and technology.

Organised by the Basque Government’s Department for Economic Development and Infrastructure through the SPRI Group, the BEC in Barakaldo will be hosting the 6th edition of Basque Industry 4.0 tomorrow and the day after, 20 and 21 November. Representatives of Basque companies, including the CIC nanoGUNE research centre, will come together to present latest achievements by talks, demonstrations and workshops on prospective technologies that will govern future research in the fourth industrial revolution.

The results in brief of the EU-funded ALDing project, published at CORDIS, highlight the importance of the project to boost nanoGUNE's start-up CTECHnano.

The EU-funded research project SPRING (SPin Research IN Graphene) has celebrated its kickoff meeting on the 7th and 8th of November 2019 in Donostia / San Sebastián (Spain).

NanoGUNE's start-up company Evolgene will participate in the next Crecer+ investment forum, organized by Orkestra - Basque Institute of Competitiveness (Deusto University), together with the Basque Health Cluster and Biocrew. 

Organised by Innobasque, the Basque Agency for Innovation, a new edition of Global Innovation Day was held today at the Euskalduna Conference Centre in Bilbao. Disruptive innovation was the leitmotif of the conference in which nanoGUNE was also present with two of its business projects: Graphenea and Biotech Foods.

Paris is to host the twelfth edition of the Be Basque Talent Conference on the forthcoming 26th October. A representative from nanoGUNE will join the event and provide general information about the Basque nanoscience research center and its career opportunities.

With respect to all the marine debris present in our oceans, that corresponding to plastics is growing and is having consequences for marine ecosystems and ourselves; these consequences deserve to be understood, prevented and, as far as is possible, neutralised. So on 1st and 2nd October the Basque nanoscience research centre CIC nanoGUNE hosted the event Plastics in our ocean. A micro or macro challenge?, which was co-funded by the European Commission through the European project EKLIPSE, Knowledge & Learning Mechanism on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services, and had the collaboration of Zubigune.

Charconnet won the award on the International Conference on Optical MEMS and Nanophotonics. Congratulations!

The researcher Marco Gobbi has been awarded one of the 33 “la Caixa” Junior Leader post-doctoral grants and will be joining nanoGUNE on 30 September.
