We are pleased to announce the invited talk given by Ivan Sasselli, Research Associate of the Biomolecular Nanotechnology & Computational Biophysics Groups at CIC biomaGUNE. The talk title is: “Computational/Experimental Symbiosis in the Design of Supramolecular Architectures: From Structure to Spinal Cord Regeneration” Supramolecular peptide polymers have demonstrated exceptional potential as materials for nanomedicine and biotechnology.

We are pleased to announce the invited talk given by Kristina Tschulik, from the Micro & Nano Electrochemistry, Center for Electrochemical Sciences, Faculty of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Ruhr-University Bochum The talk title is: “Electrochemistry - a versatile tool for the production, detection and characterization of micro- and nanoscale magnetic materials” “Electrochemistry is a well-established technique for the electrodeposition of thin films for corrosion protection or of 3D structures for int

We are pleased to announce the invited talk given by Isabella Guido, Group Leader at Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization, entitled “Bioinspired active systems assembled from the bottom-up” “In nature, the self-assembly of biopolymers and motor proteins in the complex intracellular environment leads to interesting emergent behaviour that is crucial for cellular organisation and motility.

We are pleased to announce the invited talk given by Ivan Coluzza, director of the Computational Biophysics lab at CIC biomaGUNE, entitled “Proteins as inspiration for smart materials”.   “Today the computer is just as important a tool for chemists as the test tube. Simulations are so realistic that they predict the outcome of traditional experiments” Motivation for the Nobel Prize for Chemistry 2013. In this talk I will show how using computer simulations we developed a deep understanding of proteins to bridge soft-matter and complex biological systems.

We are pleased to announce the invited talk given by Christopher Marrows, Professor of Condensed Matter Physics at the University of Leeds, UK, entitled “Skyrmions in chiral magnetic multilayers”. Magnetic skyrmions are topologically-nontrivial spin textures with particle-like properties. Their size, topological stability, and mobility suggest their use in future generations of spintronic devices, the prototype of which is the skyrmion racetrack.

We have already opened the registration for New materials for a better life!: Advanced Materials for next-generation Biomedicine, Biotechnology and Bioelectronics on 28th of October 2021 from 9:15 to 15:15 at Martina Casiano Auditorium UPV/EHU Technological Park. The attendance will take place in person and also online.

We are pleased to announce the invited talk given by Jasper Foolen, Assistant Professor at the Orthopaedic Biomechanics group of the department of Biomedical Engineering, Eindhoven University of Technology, Netherlands, about “Tendon 2 Ligament Mechanobiology”.   In my talk I will explain how I attempt to pursue my ultimate goal, which is to develop materials, tools and strategies that can assist in optimizing the quality of life of patients that suffer from tendon and ligament issues. Tendon and ligament injuries are involved in over 30% of all musculoskele

We are pleased to announce the invited talk given by Dr. Boštjan Genorio, Asst. Professor at Faculty of Chemistry and Chemical Technology, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia about “Graphene-based derivatives: Synthesis and Application in Energy Storage and Conversion”.   Carbon is considered a key element of life and the life sciences. With the isolation of graphene - a 2D carbon allotrope - in 2004, the popularity of carbon has also reached materials science.

We are pleased to announce the invited talk given by Dr. Javier del Valle, Ambizione Research Fellow at Department of Quantum Matter Physics, University of Geneva about “Correlated oxides for neuromorphic computing”.  

Neuromorphic computing, which mimics the architecture and components of biological neural networks, is an emerging technology which might overcome many challenges that traditional computing is facing. A neuromorphic computer is composed of two basic elements: neurons and synapses.
