(2025) Félix Lizalde selected as a finalist in the PhD Cup.

 

Félix Lizalde, PhD student in our group, has been selected as one of the five finalists in the SGroup PhD Cup, an international science communication contest organized by the SGroup – Universities in Europe network.

The contest challenges PhD students to present their research in English to a non-specialist audience in just three minutes. The final event will take place in October at the University of Szeged (Hungary), and the winner will receive a €1,000 grant to support a research or study stay in any institution worldwide.

Félix’s presentation, provisionally titled «Cooking solutions for the environment», uses a cooking metaphor to explain how he applies high-pressure CO₂ to generate nanoscale bubbles in advanced polymers such as polyetherimide (PEI).
