A joint INAC-Liten research team used the Synchrotron’s X-ray microbeam to create a 3D image of a fuel-cell membrane’s nanostructure after 2,500 hours of use. What did they see? Namely, that physical wear on the material varies widely from one area of the membrane to another. The researchers correlated the differences in wear to the […] >>

The MINATEC campus will soon get 11,500 sq. m of additional space with the completion of two new buildings: the Competency Center Building (BCC), which will house 550 staffers, and the 700-capacity Phelma Auditorium and Conference Center.

Maryline Bawedin, an expert in characterizing and modelling advanced CMOS components, has joined IMEP-LAHC as lecturer. She had previously completed her Ph.D. dissertation there, following degrees from Liege and Louvain Universities in Belgium. She later completed post doctorate studies at Cambridge before moving on to a position at the University of Montpellier, where she stayed […] >>

Amy Wagoner Johnson, a leading American biomaterials scientist, has been working on site at LMGP since July under the Fondation Nanosciences chair of excellence program. Wagoner Johnson’s research focuses on cell-to-cell and cell-to-biomaterial interactions in bone repair and regeneration processes. And her work stands out in two ways. First, she creates realistic microenvironments in the […] >>
