Articles
ICMAB's research output is characterized by its high impact and citation rates. Since its establishment in 1986, the institute has produced over 6,000 publications, accumulating more than 200,000 citations.
Books
The Institute of Materials Science of Barcelona (ICMAB-CSIC) publishes a wide range of scientific books and reports focused on advanced functional materials research. These publications cover key areas such as energy, electronics, and nanomedicine, reflecting the institute's multidisciplinary approach to materials science
Personnel Contracts
The ICMAB (Institute of Materials Science of Barcelona), part of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), offers various personnel contract opportunities for researchers and staff. These contracts include predoctoral positions for PhD students to conduct their doctoral thesis research at CSIC centers or institutes. The predoctoral contracts typically last for 4 years and are funded through annual calls from Spanish government ministries
Projects
The Institute of Materials Science of Barcelona (ICMAB-CSIC) is a multidisciplinary research center focused on cutting-edge research in functional advanced materials in the fields of energy, electronics, nanomedicine and application fields yet to imagine.
Research Groups
Researchers at ICMAB in 2022 are organized in 17 Research Groups, that are grouped forming 9 Research Units. At the same time, each researcher can belong to one or two reserach lines (of the five there are). Discover in this site the main achievements and highlights of each research group.
Research Lines
The Institute of Materials Science of Barcelona (ICMAB-CSIC) is a multidisciplinary research center focused on cutting-edge research in functional advanced materials in the fields of energy, electronics, nanomedicine and application fields yet to imagine.
Research Units
There are 9 discipline-specific Research Units (RUs) each with about 6 permanent staff and hosting the individual research groups in the core disciplines of preparation, characterization and modelling of different kinds materials. The RUs are supported by services for scientific measurement, maintenance, administration and documentation.
