Dr. Julián Gargiulo and Dr. Ianina moved to the Institute of Nanosystems at the National University of San Martín (Buenos Aires, Argentina) to start a new group on nanophotonics. To support them and help them start with maximum momentum, we have lend them a full setup of topical manipulation and spectroscopy of nanoparticles.
The early steps of an experimentalist in Argentina are full of unnecessary obstacles. For instance, they do not count with a start-up budget to setup their labs. At CIBION, we have implemented the policy of hosting and supporting brillant young researchers like Ianina and Julián in their earlier career towards becoming independent researchers. As part of that support we try to provide them with equipment and instruments when they move to their new home institutions so that they can continue their research with minimum delays.
