POLYMAT | 7,290 followers on LinkedIn. Synthetic polymers are found in such a large variety of products that have shaped modern life. In the future, polymers will continue substituting other materials in established applications and will play a major role in the development of the technologies needed to address some of the 21st Century challenges such as energy, health care and sustainability.

The Basque Center for Macromolecular Design and Engineering is devoted to use-inspired fundamental research on synthesis, assembly and processing of polymers that in concert with theory and simulation enable addressing to these challenges.

🔬✨ Bringing science to the classroom! Last week, our researchers Aitor Barquero, Clara García Astrain , and Ana María Muñoz Mateo shared their passion for science at Donostia Innovation Week #WeekINN organized by Donostia Sustapena - Fomento San Sebastián 🧪👩🔬👨🔬 Through workshops in various schools, we introduced students to the challenges related to plastics in society and the innovative solutions we’re developing at #POLYMAT . 🌍♻️ ➡️ Swipe to see some highlights from this educational experience.

📢 Last week, #POLYMAT researcher Juan Felipe Hincapie Álvarez participated in the 12th PhD Student Workshop on Polymer Reaction Engineering held in Lyon, France on 30-31 October. 🇫🇷 We are happy to announce that he received the 🏆 Best Macromolecular Journals Presentation Award from Wiley-VCH in recognition of his outstanding research presentation! 🎉 📄 Title: "Unveiling the kinetics of radical polymerization in aqueous solution: A new approach with microfluidics and MALDI-TOF-MS" 👨🔬 Supervisors: Dr. Nicholas Ballard and Prof. José M. Asua

Congratulations to our postdoctoral researcher Yogesh Kumar Maurya for the nice picture selected by C&EN as the Winner of October's C&EN Chemistry in Pictures Contest I ♥ molecular nanoribbons "One Friday, as part of the process of purifying an organic compound, Yogesh left the compound to crystallize over the weekend. He returned on Monday to find that it had crystallized in the shape of a heart." https://lnkd.in/dRykUkbc

At the III Edition of #WASCircularUniversity celebrated in the Universidad de Zaragoza Universa Unizar , POLYMAT researcher Nerea Casado held a conversation with Cristina Pozo-Gonzalo from Instituto de Carboquímica ICB - CSIC on the topic of #battery #recycling . I thoroughly enjoyed being the moderator of this insightful debate. ✳️ This event, organized by the #CircularEconomy Working Group of WAS (Women Action Sustainability) included an #Agora session connecting companies, research institutes, university faculty, and students to explore practical Circular Economy case studies where collaboration has been fundamental. Key #Highlights : ✔️Hands-On #Learning : Real-world case studies from companies demonstrated the practical application of circular economy, bridging theory with practice. ✔️ #Networking #Opportunities : The event connected students with industry professionals, providing and insight into potential #career paths. ✔️ #University as a Change Agent: Universities are not only research hubs but also #key #players in driving the shift from a linear to a circular model. Students will play a transformative role in this transition. ✔️ #Interdisciplinary #Collaboration : Cross-sectoral discussions reinforced the importance of teamwork between academia and industry to implement effective circular economy strategies. ✳️ Special thanks to the WAS (Women Action Sustainability) Circular Economy Working Group participants: Alba Cabañas Leticia Guerrero Alonso, Yolanda Fernández , Miryam Portillo Orgaz Edith Guedella Bustamante Clara Arpa Azofra , Leticia Saiz Rodríguez Mamen Diego Delia García Gómez and Isabel L-Rivadulla Sández ✳️ Thank you to the representatives from the University of Zaragoza Nieves García Casarejos and Paloma Ibarra for their dedication

Last week I had the pleasure of participating in a Round Table on "Talent attraction & scale-up tools" organised by Donostia Sustapena - Fomento San Sebastián in the frame of Study Visit of the European Network Eurocities . I could share the experience of POLYMAT in talent attraction and retention as well as on the development of innovative projects and entrepreneurial activities. It was a pleasure to know real cases of success in setting up Star-ups by the hand of Juan Trullos Pastor from ZENIT Solar and Sugoi Retegui Carrión . Thanks to Fomento for the invitation and for the continuous support to entrepreneurship. #Eurocities #Startups #Talent #ScaleUp #Collaboration POLYMAT
