Highlights Seminar #1

The 'Highlights' is a monthly seminar featuring presentations of three recently published articles by researchers from IMDEA Nanociencia. Additionally, the Outreach Office prepares popular summaries to give maximum visibility to the publications. The duration of each presentation is 15 minutes.

Place: conference room, IMDEA Nanociencia.
