CES and UniVie members meet up in Vienna

CES team members, Rita Campos and Bianca Brito, travelled to Viena, to interview Gisela Ibáñez-Redín, a team member from the University of Vienna (UniVie).

Summer School 2024

In July 2024, the “Critical Approaches to the Sustainable Transformation” Summer School will be based at the University of Algarve and just opened the application period. Join us next summer!

CES participa em investigação que visa a transformação sustentável do fabrico de biossensores

O Centro de Estudos Sociais (CES) da Universidade de Coimbra (UC) integra o novo projeto de investigação ‘BIOASSEMBLER – Integrando a montagem bio-inspirada na tecnologia de fabrico de semicondutores para biossensores’, que procura promover a integração das Ciências Sociais e Humanidade no desenvolvimento de tecnologias inovadoras no fabrico de microssensores e na transformação sustentável deste sector.

Bio-intelligent micromanufacturing paves the way for new biosensors – application areas include health, food and environmental monitoring

Microelectromechanical sensors are essential components in all walks of life. However, bringing biospecific elements into miniaturized sensors has been a challenge, obstructing the development of bioanalytical applications. A new European project aims to change this by developing key enabling technologies for producing silicon-based multiplexed biosensors rapidly and cost-effectively. This could transform semiconductor-based biosensor industries in Europe.
