Proposers Workshop - the final training delivered by MOLD-ERa project

The last round of three-day workshops in the framework of the MOLD-ERA project was organised on March 4-6 2013. The event entitled „Proposers Worskhop” covered such aspects as: project implementation and impact, how to maximize your funding, project best practice, typical errors and advice, as well as the current status on Horizon 2020.

CALL for Participation in FP7 Proposers Workshop (March 4-6, 2013)

: In the framework of the MOLD-ERA project the last round of three-day workshops will be organised on March 4-6 2013. The event entitled „Proposers Worskhop” will cover such aspects as: project implementation and impact, how to maximize your funding, project best practice, typical errors and advice, as well as the current status on Horizon 2020.

The workshop concerns the participation of PhD students and young researchers from research institutions, universities, and SMEs performing research and development activities.

2nd Summer School in Nano-Bioengineering finished

In the period of July 2-6, 2012 the second Summer School in nanotechnology and biomedical engineering "Nano-Bioengineering-2012" was organized by the FP7 project MOLD-ERA. The second multidisciplinary event, organized at the intersection of several fields in Moldova, aimed at developing creative skills and training specialists for the national economy, in the hope that integration into the European Research Area will create more opportunities for the local R&D community.

Surface writing produces designer nanostructures

A new way to fabricate 3D nanostructures from gallium nitride using a focused ion beam (FIB) has been developed by researchers in Moldova, Australia, Germany and France. The technique, which involves directly writing a negative charge on the surface of GaN with the FIB and then photoelectrochemically etching the sample, allows ultrathin membranes and supporting nanocolumns to be fashioned in a controlled way. GaN is a large-bandgap semiconductor widely used in electronics applications such as high-temperature, high-power electronics and optoelectronics for light-emitting diodes and lasers.

Lecture on nanotechnologies presented by prof. Tiginyanu

A fascinating lecture entitled "Nanotechnology - the call of time," was presented by the vice-president of the Academy of Sciences of Moldova, coordinator of the MOLD-ERA project prof. Ion Tiginyanu. The lecture has been broadcast by TV Channel 'Kultura' (Russian Federation) on March 13-14, 2012.
