The SCQ-IEC Research Project Awards bring two students to the ICMAB for a scientific internship
The “Societat Catalana de Química” (SCQ-IEC) organizes every year the contest on the best research chemistry projects for secondary school students (Premis als Treballs de Recerca de Batxillerat dins l’Àmbit de la Química). The award for the finalist students is a two-week scientific internship in a Catalan research center or university during July 2018.
The awards ceremony took place on May 9, 2018, at the IEC, and was introduced by a debate on “Connecting materials science to the young students and adults” by our researchers Susagna Ricart and Arántzazu González, and followed by the awards delivery and the talks of the winners.

Many ICMAB researchers were last week at the XXXVI Biennial Meeting of the RSEQ
The Spanish Royal Society of Chemistry (RSEQ) celebrated its XXXVI Biennial Meeting in Sitges from 25 to 29 June 2017. “The Biennial” (La Bienal) as it is known by the Spanish Chemical community, is the forum which shows the vitality and the vigor of the Spanish chemistry, and ICMAB didn’t want to miss this great event!
The participants of the "Materials for Biomedical Applications" (MATBIO) international summer school would repeat the experience
ICMAB hosted its first International Summer School on Materials for Biomedical Application (MATBIO2017) with four days full of lectures and hands-on activities, and with over 45 students of 21 different institutions and more than 8 different countries.
Marta's Polymer paper published
The work “Functional supramolecular tetrathiafulvalene-based films with mixed valences states” has been published in Polymer. In this paper tetrathiafulvalene molecules substituted with a carboxylic acid group (TTFCOOH) were bound as redox-active moieties into a poly(4-vinyl pyridine) (P4VP) skeleton through non-covalent interactions (hydrogen bonds).
