Visit of the BCMaterials Local Advisory Committee

On June 3rd, we received a visit from members of the BCMaterials Local Advisory Committee, one of our center's advisory bodies on scientific matters. The purpose of the meeting was for the Committee to receive an update on the center's progress toward its 2021-2025 Strategic Plan objectives, to learn firsthand about different ongoing research projects, and to offer an assessment and suggestions to be taken into account when drafting the next Strategic Plan.

Amaia Zarandona, New Doctor of BCMaterials

We would like to congratulate Amaia Zarandona Rodríguez for obtaining her PhDs in Materials Science and Technology from the UPV/EHU.

On May 22, Amaia made a brilliant defense of her thesis titled “BiSI-Based Catalysts for Water Remediation by Hybrid Advanced Oxidation Processes”. The thesis was directed by Senentxu Lanceros-Méndez and Qi Zhang.

Our warmest congratulations to Amaia and her thesis directors!

Track the Twin: Digital Twins to Improve Quantum Dots

The Marie Curie doctoral network "Track the Twin," in which BCMaterials is participating, is already underway. This project aims to enhance the long-term performance of quantum dots through the creation of digital twins. In addition to its strictly scientific objectives, "Track the Twin" seeks to train doctoral students from various countries in fields such as quantum dot synthesis, structural analysis, and computational materials science simulations, among others.
