NESTOR Spring Workshop and Consortium meeting, satellite meeting of the ICFPM 25 International Conference on Fine Particle Magnetism

NESTOR Spring Workshop and Consortium meeting, 24th Oct. 2025, as a satellite meeting of the ICFPM 25 International Conference on Fine Particle Magnetism (19th to 23rd Oct. 2025).

Provisional agenda of the NESTOR Spring Workshop and Consortium meeting, 24th Oct. 2025

Nanomaterials for Enzymatic Control of Oxidative Stress Toxicity and Free Radical Generation (NESTOR)

Join us for a full-day satellite meeting dedicated to cutting-edge research in biocatalysis. This event will explore the latest advancements in nanozymes—artificial enzymes that mimic natural enzymatic activity—and their promising applications in biomedicine and environmental science.

This meeting is organized within the framework of the NESTOR project, funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA-RISE-2020 – Research and Innovation Staff Exchange). Learn more about the project


Don’t miss this opportunity to engage with leading researchers and delve into a rapidly evolving field!

When? Friday, 24 October 2025

Where?  ICFMP2025 Conference Building at the Bariloche Atomic Center

The registration fee is USD120 (on-site payment).The workshops are accessible at no cost for the ICFPM2025 attendance and/or the participants of the Nestor Project. Prior registration is mandatory due to limited capacity.

The NESTOR project will award a limited number of grants through a competitive selection process. The deadline for applications is the 30th June 2025. More information and the application form are available here.

It is very important that all attendees complete registration before the 21st Sep. 2025 to manage entry authorizations to the Bariloche Atomic Center.

NIB Info Day for visit of primary school

NIB Info Day for visit of primary school (Osnovna sola dr. Franceta Preserna Ribnica) pupils from the talented programme under the supervision of their teacher Ms. Tina Okoren, 16th April 2025, BTS-NIB

NIB had a visit from the local primary school, and they disseminated science, research and projects -including NESTOR.

📍 The National Institute of Biology, Department of Genetic Toxicology and Cancer Biology hosted 40 curious pupils and their teachers from the local primary school.

🔬 NIB introduced them to the world of research and explained what we do in the field of genetic toxicology – including our work on nanoparticles within the H2020 NESTOR project. Through hands-on activities, they took their first steps as young scientists and discovered how exciting science can be!

A big thank you to all the enthusiastic young visitors—we loved having you with us! 🌱🧪
