Achucarro International Glia School 2021 will be on-line
The current edition maintains the core of activities of our training and networking event.
The current situation regarding Covid-19 pandemic restrictions is a major obstacle to organize the 2021 edition of our Glia School in the format we originally planned.
We have therefore decided to switch to an on-line format. This modification implies that poster sessions and practical demonstrations will not take place, while we will maintain the lectures and research project (grant) elaboration including the brainstorming session supervised by the speakers.

Cover on ACS Appl Mater Interfaces for a collaboration work on Fluorine Labeling of Nanoparticles
Researcher from Institute Biofisika, CIC biomaGUNE and ACHUCARRO collaborate in this work in the field of molecular imaging
This article shows the results of an amazing collaboration that led to successfully prepare fluorine-labelled nanoparticles (NPs) that are active in 19F magnetic resonance imaging (19F MRI) by either conjugating four different fluorinated building blocks, shown in the 3D structure, to carboxyl-modified NPs or by direct grafting of PEG-fluorinated ligands. The research team obtained 19F MRI images of NPs accumulating in mice livers after intravenous injection.
