The ICMAB is a research institute of the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC), the largest research organization of Spain focusing on basic and applied research. The ICMAB,which is already more than two decades old, keeps its initial enthusiasm which makes it a very attractive place to work for young researchers. At present the ICMAB includes about 200 people with 53 scientists as permanent staff. The initial and ongoing mission of the ICMAB is “to generate new knowledge in Materials Science and transfer it to the society, particularly to industry within the European Research Area“. Materials Science has evolved dramatically in the last 20 years and the cutting edge activities in this area are now deeply rooted in the Nanoscience revolution.
Our commitment is to become strongly involved in new developments in this area. To foster the mission of the ICMAB we are integrated in the Barcelona Nanocluster at Bellaterra (BNC-b), a virtual network of research centers integrated in the Research Park of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (PRUAB). The Strategic Plan of the ICMAB for 2010-13 defines four research lines, three of them focusing on the materials finality and the fourth one having a methodological character.
