“Càpsules de Ciència: Josep Samitier” (Eng)

IBEC Director Josep Samitier stars in one of the Associació per a la Divulgació de la Cultura Cientifica (ADICC)’s ‘Càpsules de Ciència’, a series of videos highlighting biomedical and biotechnology researchers in Catalonia. In the video, he explains nanobiotechnology with the submarine on Ronda de Dalt as a backdrop, which represents the way nanodevices can travel through our bodies much like tiny submarines on a rescue mission.
