CEDENNA inaugurated its annual seminar series with the visit of Dr. Sébastien Garbarino, Director of Infrastructure and Innovation at PRIMA Québec, an entity of the regional Canadian government dedicated to creating a research and innovation hub in advanced materials through funding collaborative research projects between science and industry, focusing on applications in energy, mining, environment, health, additive manufacturing, artificial intelligence, quantum technology, and much more.

This Wednesday, May 29th, the mini course "Magnetism and Molecular-Based Materials" will begin, taught by two CEDENNA researchers, Drs. Diego Venegas (USACH) and Verónica Paredes (UNAB), along with an international guest: Professor Javier Campo Ruiz from the Institute of Nanoscience and Materials of Aragón (INMA) and the University of Zaragoza.

The April Crystal Growth & Design magazine highlights on its cover the publication of a study by the CEDENNA Nanostructure Chemistry group team that analyzes the magnetostructural properties of two new coordination polymers with zigzag topology, and in which the researchers Carlos participated. Cruz, Walter Cañón, Verónica Paredes-García and Diego Venegas Yazigi.

"At CEDENNA, we have the great possibility of creating something in Chile that gives added value to currently unexploited minerals, such as those present in tailings. I am delighted with the visit. We were able to see the laboratories and what is specifically done there. Here we are talking about applied research, and that is not very common in Chile," highlighted Erwin Plett, founder and manager of Lowcarbon Chile and Director of H2 Chile Chilean Hydrogen Association, during his recent visit to the Center for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (CEDENNA). 

“Gender inclusion is not a concession, but a necessity for the comprehensive development of our society,” said the Director of the CEDENNA Foundation, Dr. Dora Altbir, when receiving her guests at the commemoration that this entity that promotes nanoscience and nanotechnology organized on the occasion of International Women's Day.

• In addition to receiving theoretical classes from prominent researchers, including two National Prize winners for Exact Sciences, teachers had the opportunity to participate in practical experiments, including the production of their own nanoparticles, guided by expert scientists in areas such as nanomedicine, nanomagnetism, nanobiotechnology, nanosafety, and development of materials with nanotechnology.

The ninth edition of ProNano, the most significant event in the field of nanoscience and nanotechnology aimed at Chilean teachers, was held on Thursday, March 14, at the E

As is tradition, the CEDENNA Center begins the delivery of 2024 calendars throughout the country. These copies highlight images created by researchers, students and technological developers from our center, with the aim of educating and increasing the visibility of scientific work in an entertaining way, mixing art and science.

Support for the improvement and constant updating of Science, Physics, Chemistry and Biology in the topics of nanoscience and nanotechnology has been a priority task for the members of CEDENNA.

In an unprecedented milestone for agricultural innovation in Chile, the Center for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, CEDENNA, successfully carried out its first "Nanotechnology Fair for the Agricultural Sector", bringing together prominent government, business and agricultural leaders in Chile. . This pioneering event offered a unique platform for the discovery and discussion of cutting-edge nanotechnological solutions, marking a before and after in the way the sector faces environmental and sustainability challenges.

In its edition today (Monday, February 12) El Mercurio's Campo Magazine highlights that from CEDENNA, the doctor in Plant Biology Gustavo Zúñiga has developed the production of green nanoparticles from endemic Chilean plants for use in medicine and agriculture. This innovation will be present at the First Nanotechnology for Agriculture Fair that will be held on Thursday, March 28, with the assistance of government authorities and a group of prominent leaders from the agricultural sector.
