The project led by Neus Sabaté, a researcher at the Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona, has been selected to receive funding from the European Research Council for her PRONTO project: self-PoweRed cONductimeter for digiTalization of rapid mOlecular diagnostics.
This is the first Spanish electric thruster for nanosatellites, developed by the startup IENAI SPACE, to maximize the lifetime of the devices and offer orientation control to nanosatellites. The electric drive uses innovative electrospray technology, based on silicon chips manufactured in the CSIC's Micro and Nanofabrication Clean Room at the IMB-CNM.
The UAB will host a workshop on the progress of SINCRO, a project to develop an optical sensor to control the quality of the water supplied. The Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona (IMB-CNM, CSIC) participates in the consortium that promotes this project funded by the Ministry of Economy.
The management of the ATLAS experiment, one of two general-purpose detectors at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, visited the Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona (IMB-CNM-CSIC) and the Institut de Física d'Altes Energies (IFAE) and participated in a two-day meeting with the researchers and students of both institutes.
Seven projects awarded to the IMB-CNM in the latest national call Generation of Knowledge of the State Plan for Scientific and Technical Research and Innovation begin today, obtaining almost 1.5 million euros to investigate high-energy physics, neurotechnology and quantum technologies.
Cecilia Jiménez, researcher at the IMB-CNM, and David Rodríguez, from the Institute of Physics of Cantabria (IFCA-CSIC-UC) are the coordinators of the new PTI+ Science and Digital Innovation launched by the CSIC and presented today at the central headquarters in Madrid.
The IMB-CNM, through the researcher Cecilia Jiménez, initiates the European project HYDROSENS for the development of hydrogen detection sensors with new functional materials. The initiative is financed by M-ERA.NET, a European financing network to support technological innovations aimed at the objectives of the EU Green Deal.
A European project, comprising 45 partners from academic and industrial backgrounds, to provide state-of-the-art to research infrastructures in particle physics, such as the CERN. The Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona is one of the partners, in a long-standing collaboration with CERN.
