IN2UB Information

Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (IN2UB), from the University of Barcelona, has as the aim to coordinate multidisciplinary research activities carried out by several research groups of this institution working at the nanoscale. The IN2UB wants to contribute to the progress of science, while spurring, at the same time, education and industrial excellence in the field of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology. Researchers who are members of the (IN2UB) come from different scientific disciplines, such as Physics, Chemistry, Pharmacy Science, Biochemistry, Biology, Medicine and Earth Sciences. In this framework, the (IN2UB) aims at promoting, both internally and internationally, the collaboration among different groups and research centres by strengthening interdisciplinary activities which integrate both basic and applied research. The main and most challenging goals of the (IN2UB) are: • To encourage the most suitable synergies among researchers in the fields of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, in order to favour the interdisciplinary work patterns necessary to take on frontier research project development; • To favour interaction among researchers and those companies interested in nanotechnologies and their different uses by bringing the two fronts to collaborate in project development that shall meet the technological requirements of the business world.
