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

“Selective targeting and biological barriers” will focus on ways to deliver therapies to otherwise inaccessible sites (BBB, lungs, biofilms). More information is coming soon.

In this second workshop, we will explore how humanized and bioengineered models can replace 2D cultures and murine models to better understand and replicate rare disorders. The goal is to examine the latest approaches for studying rare diseases in personalized human models. The opening seminar will feature Juanma Fernández from IBEC's “Biosensors for Bioengineering” group. ... Read more
