Liliana Tomé, a researcher from POLYMAT-Univeristy of the Basque Country (Spain), visited our partners at CONICET (Argentina). First, she had the opportunity to hold discussions with Universidad Nacional de Litoral’s colleagues in Santa Fé. Can you see any other known faces on the picture? Yes, those are IONBIKE members Roque Minari, Ana Dos Santos and Gisela Luque! Next she moved to Universidad Nacional de Río Cuarto. Our collaboration in new ionogels and its applications will be very much reinforced after this visit.

Ana Patricia Dos Santos Martins, an early stage researcher from POLYMAT (Spain), is already enjoying her stay at CONICET-Universidad del Litoral (Argentina). During her four-month stay, Ana will be making progress towards the characterisation of innovative iongel membranes. Here you can see Ana’s poster at the Symposium Argentino de Polímeros in Buenos Aires. A great venue to disseminate our project results!!

Georgios Nikifiridis, an early stage researcher from KAUST (Saudi Arabia), is currently at POLYMAT-University of the Basque Country. During four weeks, Georgios will explore new pathways for the synthesis of iongels precursos. We hope you enjoy the experience, Georgios!

Isabel del Agua, an experienced researcher from PANAXIUM (France), is a visiting researcher this month at POLYMAT. A wonderful chance to exchange knowledge and progress towards the development of IONBIKE bioelectronic components and devices!
