Students of the Laboratory and Virtuality in Primary Education subject of the degree in Education Studies, in collaboration with the UAB Open Labs, has created the campaign Pla’t pel canvi to foster the recycling of plant-based plastic on campus.
A review study led by the UAB, the CREAF and the University of Aveiro concludes that nanoplastics change the composition and diversity of gut microbiome in vertebrates and invertebrates. The effects of a widespread and prolonged exposure to nanoplastics observed in animal models can be applied to humans.
Fàtima Bosch, professor in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and director of CBATEG at the UAB, alongside Maria Blasco and Paula Martínez from the National Cancer Research Centre (CNIO), have founded Telomere Therapeutics, with funding from Invivo Ventures.
Joint research conducted by the UAB has shown the ability to switch magnetizacion « on » and « off » using voltage in a new class of easy-to-fabricate materials containing nitrogen. These results, published in Nature Communications, may be used to reduce energy consumption in electronic technologies.
The research centres located on the UAB campus are participating in the scientific dissemination activities which will be celebrated until 29 November all over Catalonia, this year with numerous activities being held online.
On Monday 16 November, from 12:30 to 3:00 p.m., the UAB's CORE in Mental Health will be hosting a seminar addressed to the university community, and local entities and institutions to devise joint suicide prevention actions to be applied on campus.
Scientists have developed extremely stable molecular switches of high luminosity that self-assemble into 1D nanostructures and form gel-like materials. These molecular switches can be used in biomedicine as fluorescent probes for imaging or sensing, in fluorescent displays, or in memories and information processing devices.
The reWINE project, coordinated by the UAB Research Park and including the involvement of the ICTA-UAB spin-off inèdit, presents the results of its pilot test of a sustainable system of collection, cleaning and reuse of glass bottles of Catalonia's wine industry, developed in the past 20 months.
