IMDEA Materials has achieved a new milestone in attracting talent and securing European research funding, after being awarded two projects in the latest call of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Doctoral Networks.
New research into the crystallisation process of additively manufactured Finemet alloys offers a promising roadmap toward optimising the production of soft-magnetic components produced via metallic glasses.
From the legendary Toledo steel swords to the biomaterials that today help regenerate bone, or the catalysts that are transforming the chemical industry, materials have been one of the keys to technological and scientific progress.
Researchers from IMDEA Materials Institute, in collaboration with China’s Nanjing and Huazhong Universities, have developed a new acoustic metamaterial capable of transmitting complex sound signals directly between water and air.
IMDEA Materials Institute is pleased to announce that it has joined the European Virtual Institute on Knowledge-Based Multifunctional Materials (KMM-VIN) as a core member. The organisation operates as a pan-European virtual institute dedicated to research in advanced materials.
An ambitious project led by the Technical University of Madrid (UPM) and IMDEA Materials Institute aims to develop new tools to address some of today’s most debilitating diseases.
Floatech, spin-off of IMDEA Materials Institute, will receive €2.5 million in new funding after being selected for the European Innovation Council’s (EIC) Accelerator programme.
IMDEA Materials Institute has concluded two productive days hosting the latest meeting of CompSTLar, bringing together 15 partners from across Europe to review progress and define the next phase of the project.
An international research team has demonstrated how conventional radiative cooling coatings can be optimised to further reduce building surface temperatures, cutting energy consumption, while also improving fire safety.
Artificial organs, implants that are absorbed and regenerated with our own bone, mini-organs to replicate diseases and test treatments before experimenting on living beings… Will we achieve the dream of eternal youth?
IMDEA Materials has been awarded 6 Marie Sklodowska Curie Actions (MSCA) Postdoctoral Fellowships in the latest call. The selected fellowships together represent more than €1.2 million in European funding.
A breakthrough in architected superelastic nitinol opens new possibilities for next-generation biomedical devices and minimally invasive surgical systems.
An international research team has demonstrated a new approach to 4D-printed shape-morphing implants that opens the door to increasingly personalised healthcare.
It was a special day for the IMDEA Materials Institute as our Scientific Director, Prof. Javier LLorca, received the Miguel Catalán Research Award from the Community of Madrid.
Beyond their sensory appeal, polyphenols play multiple roles in human health. On the one hand, they neutralise free radicals, molecules in our bodies that, in excess, can cause cellular damage, thereby reducing oxidative stress.
Researchers have demonstrated a new bilayer ceramic coating to extend the service life of tools needed in the machining of the world’s most widely used titanium alloy.
At IMDEA Materials, we believe that excellent research should not stop at the lab. That’s why we are launching the “Materialise 2026 Proof-of-Concept (PoC) call”, an initiative designed to accelerate the journey from scientific results to real-world applications.
Researchers from IMDEA Materials Institute have demonstrated improved and more affordable catalytic materials used to produce green hydrogen.
