[Mascareñas group @MetBioCat]

... @mato_mauro, RyC researcher at our group, was also contributing today to #Photocat2026 with his oral communication entitled: "Learning from and Teaching Nature with Light"

Such great job from both of you! 🤩

As this academic year comes to a close, we reflect on the many outreach activities we have taken part in, from the Galician High School Students' Visits Programme to the Ciencia Singular Open Day.

A huge thank you to all our lab members making these outreach activities a success

We are also pleased to welcome back @RicardoRXIII, who is rejoining the group and will be working with the technology transfer team.

It's great to have you back on board! ⛵️👨‍🏭

[Mascareñas group @MetBioCat]

As we return from the summer break, we would like to thank those who have been part of the group (and @ciqususc ) and have moved on over the last few months: Carlos Lázaro, @danimarcosat, and @AndyADX. 👨‍🎓👨‍🔬⚗️

What a day!! 🥳

@ciqususc @UniversidadeUSC

[Mascareñas group @MetBioCat]

Right before August and the summer-pause, we are having another PhD candidate willing to defend his thesis work, @IvanHuertas16 ... you will rock it 👨‍🎤🎸

Do not miss the event in the very beginning of the next week 🗓️

[Mascareñas group @MetBioCat]

...and, also on that day, another CiQUS Lecture.

This time, Prof. Xacobe C. Cambeiro (@CambeiroChem, from Univ. of Greenwich) will present some of his recent work in the early morning of 27/07/2026

This week we have two of our group members at the #EUROBIC 18 (https://t.co/Yb02laJ2qa), which is taking place at the Feringa building (@univgroningen) and finishing today.

Yesterday, @tomasgamasa (@ciqususc PI) delivered her invited lecture...
So great time there! 🤩🤩 [1/2]
