Dr. Lluís Soler Turu from NEMEN was interviewed by Nature Magazine about his work on sustainable catalysts for green hydrogen production.

Researchers at CCEM–BarcelonaTech (UPC) highlight in Science the potential of ionic plastic crystals for sustainable solid-state refrigeration. These materials offer efficient cooling without greenhouse gas emissions — a major step toward eco-friendly cooling technologies.

ICREA and ICIQ researchers developed a plant-based resin from materials like succinic acid to replace fossil-based resins, reducing environmental impact. Published in RSC Applied Polymers.

We are delighted to announce that Dr. Lluís Soler, member of the Barcelona Research Center in Multiscale Science and Engineering, has been awarded with a Ramón y Cajal Fellowship by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation.

Prof. Jordi Llorca has been awarded the ICREA Acadèmia award three times (2009, 2014 and 2019), for the fundamental study and application of catalysts in the field of energy harvesting and environment. The winner of ICREA Acadèmia award receives a subsidy for the research for a period of five years.

We are pleased to announce the winner of the Logo Design Competition. The evaluation committee has decided to reward the design presented by Dr. Lluís Soler.
