EIC Podcast: Vertical farming – will factory-grown food become the new normal?
It was a great pleasure to participate in this European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency (EISMEA) sponsored discussion on vertical farming with new innovations as our Bio-LEDs developed in ARTIBLED.
Thank you Antonio Marco Pantaleo, Rubén Costa, Galina Gorshkova, Prashanth Makaram and Aoife Mangan Brite.
Sustainability Day 2022: Integrating protein in energy technologies
On the 27th of October 2022, the Chair of Biogenic Functional Materials contributed to the TUM Sustainability Day, showing how to integrate protein materials in energy technologies during the colloquium “What role do materials play in sustainability?“. Sara held the presentation illustrating how to build up bridges between biology and optoelectronics towards sustainable devices. She also highlighted ARTIBLED project strategy in this direction.
Great time visiting collaborators at Aalto University!
JP, Mattia, and Rubén are very grateful for the warm welcome and the nice discussions with Dr. Anaya and Prof. Kostiainen of the Biohybrid Materials Group (BiHy). There are lot of new results for excellent papers and more ideas to work on.
We are looking forward to hosting you in December.
Closing Cu-MOF MSCA action
We are very thankful for the great support of the MSCA training action on developing new HLEDs based on hybrid metal organic frameworks that are the dream material of Dr. Atoini (Youssef). This project has been very challenging, but results are under reviewing. Stay tuned to get the
new innovations!!
For today we share here a video gathering the most important aspects of Youssef’s research.

Workshop: Crafting a Winning ERC-StG Proposal: III Workshop with ERC officers and grantees
The Young Academy of Spain organized a III Workshop focused on crafting a winning proposal for the European Research Council (ERC). Rubén was moderator and part of the organization team of the workshop.
The event was streamed on the Young Academy of Spain’s YouTube channel.
We welcome our new team member – David Gutiérrez Armayor
We are very pleased to welcome our new team member – David Gutiérrez Armayor.
The main objective of his project is to stabilize fluorescent proteins in order to fabricate highly performing devices for lighting applications.
Congratulations to Luca for being a finalist of European Young Chemist Award at EuChemS Chemistry Congress 2022!
On the 1st of September 2022, Luca presented our latest results at EuChemS Chemistry Congress 2022 and contextually he reached the final stage of the prestigious competition European Young Chemist Award – PhD level, from European Chemical Society.
Congratulations to Luca for his talk to EuChemS Chemistry Congress 2022!
On the 1st of September 2022, Luca presented our latest results at EuChemS Chemistry Congress 2022 in Lisbon, Portugal, with a focus on the use of multivariate tools for copper complexes design. We re-though the way of approaching ligands design introducing multivariate analysis and highlighting the relevance of second order terms in this stage. Thus, we reached the milestone of white-emitting fully copper-based LECs.
We welcome our new team member Dr. Santosh Kumar Behera
We are very pleased to welcome our new team member Dr. Santosh Kumar Behera.
Dr. Behera is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow at our chair. His research focuses on the design and development of phosphorescent and thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF)
small molecules for white light-emitting electrochemical Cells.
