Solidarity with Ukrainian refugees

The Nanoscience Cooperative Research Center CIC nanoGUNE, located in Donostia / San Sebastian, Basque Country (Spain), kindly offers support to researchers (particularly PhD students and post-docs) who have been forced to leave Ukraine as a result of the ongoing war.

NanoGUNE is a research center set up with the mission to carry out world-class nanoscience research for the competitive growth of the Basque Country. NanoGUNE is a member of the Basque Research and Technology Alliance (BRTA) and is also recognized by the Spanish Research Agency as a "Maria de Maeztu" Unit of Excellence (2022-2025).
