More than 1,200 people took part in the 26 scientific workshops prepared by a hundred researchers from the University and the ICAC, ICIQ, IISPV and IPHES research institutes. The activity, coordinated once again by the URV, exceeded expectations in its return to a face-to-face format
URV research demonstrates the mechanism by which microplastics, when in contact with cell membranes, stretch and greatly reduce their mechanical stability
Marta Sales Pardo is the first woman from a Catalan and Spanish university to have been appointed as a fellow member by this scientific society.
Using high-performance computation systems, a URV research team has simulated the flow of air produced by coughing and sneezing in unprecedented detail. The results give greater insight into the characteristics of the flow produced by breathing and the capacity of infectious aerosols to disperse in the environment and remain suspended, which spreads COVID-19 and other airborne diseases
The high level of research and the quality of its doctoral theses and the associated publications are the principal strengths recognised by the accreditation
Members of the Food, Innovation & Engineering (FoodIE) Research Group at the URV have analysed the properties of black soldier fly protein fractions to boost their use in the food industry. They have demonstrated that this insect protein is comparable to whey protein for sunflower oil emulsification, while it offers certain advantages for lemon oil encapsulation
