Carlos visited KU Leuven (Prof. Dirk De Vos and Francisco García Cirujano) to present the last results of the team on charge transport and photoactivity in MOFs.
MOF School held in Lake Como (Italy) with an amazing line up of invited speakers and presented her recent work on the nanosizing of titanium frameworks and photoactive Zr(IV) MOFs. They also had time to make new friends!

Alexei Ganin, Lecturer at the University of Glasgow, visited us to share a few days and present the last advances of his team on using solid state electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution from water. Thanks for visiting!
The funimat team formed by Victor Rubio, Javi Castells, Isabel Abanades, María Romero and Carmen Fernández took part in the dissemination sessions of «Expociencia«. A lot of the young participants and even the older ones were fascinated by taking a little bit of lemon juice, vinegar or detergent with a few drops of red cabbage and seeing it change color. Moreover, the participants brought home a small eppendorf containing red cabbage to keep on playing with the pH at home.
Carlos visited IMDEA NanoScience in Madrid for an invited seminar on charge transport and in metal-organic frameworks and push forward our collaboration with the surface coordination chemistry team led by David Écija.
Mario Wriedt, Associate Professor and Kodak CAMP Distinguished Professor at Clarkson University (USA), visited us to present the last advances of his team on the development of new frameworks for electro- and photochromic switches, and stimuli-responsive spintronics. We are hopeful this will initiate a fruitful collaboration between both groups.
Congratulations to Dr. Escorcia-Ariza after his excellent PhD Thesis defense. The jury was formed by Prof. Cháfer, Platero-Prats and Sánchez-Costa. Garin has done a great job developing home-built setups to fabricate and measure charge transport in ultrathin films of MOFs and coordination polymers. All the best for your new endeavours. Congratulations Garin!
Carlos was invited to present our recent results of relevance in biotechnological applications at the annual meeting of Biotecmed, to celebrate its recent certification as scientific institute of the Universidad de Valencia. We are excited to push hard our ongoing collaborations with our biological colleagues!
Funimat was present at the ACS Symposium held in San Diego. Carlos and Sergio presented our recent results in photoactive titanium frameworks and charge transport in ultrathin films in the MOF symposium.
