Every year, there is Saló de l’ensenyament- Saló Futura at Fira de Barcelona with a unique opportunity for high-school students and graduate students to get to know first hand the different universities, centres to study their bachelor and master. This time, the IQCC of the UdG did a workshop at Espai Ciència from Fundació Catalana

Cyano lambda3-iodanes react with iron(II) and iron(III) complexes as cyano-transfer one-electron oxidants. This approach enables the straightforward synthesis of iron(III) and iron(IV) cyanide complexes, which have been thoroughly characterized by spectroscopic methods, including X-ray diffraction, EPR, Mössbauer and NMR spectroscopies and computational methods. We disclose a new reactivity mode for electrophilic cyano lambda3-iodanes as group
The IQCC started a new series of online talks to address challenges in the research fields where the IQCC is playing a role, through the investigations of one of the Principal Investigators. An external expert is invited to give a seminar, together with one of the junior researchers of the IQCC. These complementary views will
A few times a year, the IQCC opens its doors and gives the opportunity to high-school students to know our work through exciting lectures and computational and experimental workshops. This provides the secondary school pupils the possibility to get a feel for the research and have real-time chemistry in their hands. Last week, it was
One of the priorities of the IQCC is to strengthen the connections with industry, both nationally and internationally. Continuation of ongoing collaborative research efforts and initiating new joint projects are a high priority for the institute. Actually, there are several collaborations with the private sector. Furthermore, this month, Dr. Sílvia Osuna has started a new
The Catalan Association for Scientific Communication (ACCC), within the Gender Perspective group, wants to make female leading researchers in Catalonia visible. For this reason, the exhibition “Científiques Catalanes 2.0” was designed . The exhibition started two years ago, in which many of the included scientists have been recognized in different fields of research. Among them, we
Laia Vicens participated at “Divulgando con el JIQ en 3 minutos” competition organised by Jóvenes Investigadores Químicos – RSEQ for the International Day of Women and Girls in Science (11th of February) with a 3 min video on Youtube. Laia Vicens, PhD student under the supervision of Dr. Miquel Costas, presented her research in 3 min
Tomorrow (8th of March) is International Women’s Day. The IQCC has currently a rather favourable balance in gender ratio of staff members, both at the Master level (47%), PhD level (37%), postdocs (13%) and permanent researchers staff (29%). Notably, out of the 4 most recent permanent members, 2 are men and 2 are women, reinforcing
