This event is going to present again the most recent international developments in the field of Nanobiotechnology and Nanomedicine and will provide a platform for multidisciplinary communication, new cooperations and projects to participants from both science and industry. The call for ... Read more

Thematic Network Workshop: “AI for Bioengineering” Today, healthcare technology collects a huge amount of raw data whose interpretation and analysis are beyond human capabilities. AI integration into bioengineering and personalized medicine is crucial to allow complex data analysis, to enhance predictive models, to integrate multiscale data, and to automate tasks. These capabilities are vital for ... Read more

This first workshop will focus on cutting-edge tools and techniques used to investigate cellular processes and disease. The event will feature two plenary lectures by leading external experts, along with a series of presentations by IBEC researchers. Speakers will present on a range of topics, including nanomechanics, atomic force microscopy, electron microscopy, surface nanopatterning, membrane ... Read more

In this first workshop, we will explore how various IBEC groups and external researchers are using new technologies to develop personalized therapies for rare diseases. The opening seminar features Adriana Gonzalez from IBEC’s “Molecular Imaging for Precision Medicine” group. She will explain how the group studies myotonic dystrophy type I, a rare muscular disease, using ... Read more

The event offers you the opportunity to engage with our researchers and inquire about their day-to-day work in the lab, career trajectories, work-life balance, mobility, etc. In 2024, IBEC signed more than 140 internship agreements for undergraduate and master’s students with a wide range of national and international universities. If you are interested in IBEC’s ... Read more

Self-assembly and self-organization are fundamental principles that govern the formation of complex structures and functions across biological systems. This workshop will explore how these processes emerge in nature, how they contribute to the organization of life, and whether similar behaviors can be replicated in engineered systems. By bringing together perspectives from biology, chemistry, and physics, ... Read more

IBEC's Next-Generation Nanomedicine Network (NET-NANO) is dedicated to bridging nanomedicine research with practical applications, enhancing our ability to diagnose and treat human diseases effectively. As part of this initiative, a series of thematic workshops are being organised. The second workshop, scheduled for June 13th, will delve into nanomedicine design for selective targeting and overcoming biological ... Read more
