Jan presented an ICMAB seminar on face masks – materials and reusability
Face masks are still one of the key factors helping us face the current COVID-19 pandemic, and have been part of the conversation since the first responses to the virus started to appear. The other key factor is physical distancing. Jan Grzelak, a PhD student in N&N Group, has presented an Online ICMAB Seminar on the current knowledge we have on the materials used to create masks and their reusability.
You can watch the recording of the seminar here.

The CORNEAL-BC project featured on the CSIC newsletter
The CORNEAL-BC project explores the possibilities of bacterial nanocellulose to treat corneal wounds in close collaboration with ophthalmologists. We are very happy to see this project featured on the CSIC R+D newsletter! Read the article (Spanish) here and learn more about it!
Anna Laromaine and Amanda attended the BAR Meeting on C. elegans in Barcelona
On January 29, Anna Laromaine and Amanda Muñoz attended the Second BAR Meeting about C. elegans. Barcelona-based community of experts on the small worm met in the Bocconcino bar to talk about their research and experience in an informal setting.
Our paper “Nanocellulose films with multiple functional nanoparticles in confined spatial distribution” appears on the CSIC magazine!
Our recent paper reporting on a multifunctional bacterial nanocelullose mille-feuille has been featured on the CSIC magazine! We are always pleased to see our work explained to the general public. Do not miss it!
“Els materials que canviaran el món” published in La Vanguardia
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.
Irene will give a talk for the Pint of Science festival
Between 14 and 16 May 2018, the bars of Barcelona will be full of science. Pint of Science is back in town!
