“Un robot capaz de transportar fármacos a una célula cancerígena, mejor innovación del año”
Samuel Sánchez, who will join IBEC as a new group leader in January 2015, has been awarded the title ‘Innovador del año’ by MIT Technology Review, the best of their 10 selected “Innovadores menores de 35 España 2014”, for his pioneering contributions in the field of micro- and nanomotors, such as self-propelled nanorobots for biosensing applications.
This week, he has featured in articles and interviews by La Vanguardia, El Confidencial, El Mundo, Antena3, RAC1 and more.
Olfactory system segregates odour data at moment of input
We all know how emotive smells can be; just the mere whiff of candy floss or plasticine can transport you back decades in a moment.
But how does our olfactory system recognise odours even at very low doses?
Signal and Information Processing for Sensing Systems
Current smart instrumentation using multi-sensors and/or spectrometers provides a wealth of data that requires sophisticated signal and data processing approaches to extract the hidden information. Our group develops algorithmic solutions … Read more
