Andrés Martín Cid, Graduate Student from BCmaterials was awarded in this year E-MRS (European Materials Research Society) Spring meeting for his oral presentation, entitled “Tetragonal Ce-based Ce-Sm(Fe, Co, Ti) 12 alloys for permanent magnets”. He received the award within the Symposium E (Substitution of critical raw materials: synthesis, characterization and processing of new advanced materials in optoelectronic and magnetic devices). The meeting was held in Lile, France between May 2nd and 5th 2016

Nanotechnology journal has chosen a BCMaterials article for the front page of its volume 27, number 17 published on April 29th of 2016.

The title of the publication is "High-yield fabrication of 60 nm Permalloy nanodiscs in well-defined magnetic vortex state for biomedical applications" written by the BCMaterials authors Maite Goiriena-Goikoetxea, Alfredo García-Arribas and Jose Manuel Barandiarán among others.

Yesterday the Basque Government gave an acknowledgement to ACTIMAT project, where BCMaterials takes part.

Yesterday, May 5th Daniel Salazar and Andrés Martin talked at the E symposium: Substitution of critical raw materials: synthesis, characterization and processing of new advanced materials in optoelectronic and magnetic devices of the E-MRS Spring Meeting.      

Prof. Barandiarán, scientific director of BCMaterials, was yesterday on the radio talking about the NOVAMAG project.

Last friday Prof. Tae-sik Yoon from Myongji University (Korea) gave a talk about "Nanoparticles and their assenbly" in the Basque Country University (UPV/EHU)
