Summer School

June 21-24, 2022 

The last 21-24th of June, BioInspireSensing Project celebrated a Summer school at the University of Warsaw (Poland). During one week our early stage researchers participated in trainings and lectures about electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, biodegradable polymers and biosensors under the supervision of experts in the field. They also had the chance to visit Warsaw, a bustling metropolis that combines tradition with modernity.

1st Training Module on Ion Channels

April 4-8, 2022 

The first training module of the BioInspireSensing project took place in the University of Leuven on April 4-8 under the supervision of Professors Thomas Voets (KU Leuven) and Stephan Kellenberger (Univ. of Lausanne). Thanks to this training, all the early stage researchers got access to specific courses about ion channels under the supervision of experts in the field. These lessons included electrophysiology, sensing ion channels, families and regulation. In addition, they enjoyed visiting some of the most representative monuments of the city.

Students Kick-Off Meeting 

January 27-28, 2022 

The Students Kick-Off Meeting of the BioInspireSensing project took place on January 27-28, under the organization of the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC), in Barcelona. During these days, the members could assist to presentations from both the students and project partners, visit the UPC research centers, assist to a workshop about "Micromasculinities", take part in the activity "Hands on polymer characterization" about the synthesis, deposition and characterization of thin films polymers; and enjoy a guided tour in La Pedrera, an iconic building of the city.
