Moth-Eye Nanostructures: Nature’s Blueprint for Advanced Surfaces
This animation, crafted in collaboration with Scixel (www.scixel.com), draws inspiration from the work of Isabel Rodriguez and her team at IMDEA Nanoscience. Nature’s moth-eye structures have long fascinated us with their unique antireflective and self-cleaning properties. The animation contrasts two scenarios: one showcasing the nanocone structures, inspired by the moth-eye, and the other without them. As a light ray moves across the material, observe the pronounced difference in reflection and refraction. The introduction of these nanocones significantly modifies the material’s optical attributes, minimizing undesired reflections.

Magnetized Biomedicine: The Power of Nanoparticles
This animation is inspired by the research of Dr. Cristina Flors and her team at IMDEA Nanoscience. The AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy) pierces the bacterial membrane, enabling the entry of the fluorescence dye. Consequently, the optical microscope can identify when the bacterium is dead.

A Closer Look: Super- resolution STED Microscopy and Amyloid Imaging
This scientific animation shows a novel approach to imaging amyloid fibers led by the group of Cristina Flors (IMDEA Nanoscience). Leveraging the properties of Thioflavin T (ThT), a commonly used amyloid probe, as a specific, exchangeable fluorophore, we’ve enhanced the capabilities of stimulated emission depletion (STED) super-resolution microscopy. This innovative method achieves an spatial resolution in the range of 60-70 nm, significantly reducing image background noise and boosting photostability for extended periods of STED imaging. These exciting advancements not only broaden the uses of ThT but also pave the way for the application of other common amyloid fluorescent in STED microscopy Delve into this research: https://doi.org/10.1039/D0NR02961K For more scientific animations and more about scientific visual communication: www.patriciabondia.com
Racing on the Edge of Science: Nanocar Challenge
The of researchers at IMDEA Nanociencia are revving up their molecular engines for the international Nanocar Race. Spearheaded by David Écija and Emilio M. Pérez, the teams from Madrid are gearing up to showcase their prowess in the second edition of this race in Toulouse, in March 2022. Dive into the world’s most miniature car race, where vehicles are not cars but molecules, racing tirelessly for 24 hours on a gleaming gold track. These molecular marvels are propelled by the intricate interaction with a scanning tunneling microscope (STM). But it’s not just a race; it’s a mission. The ultimate aim? Pioneering the development of nanomachines that can perform tangible tasks, from transporting molecular-scale cargo to revolutionizing nano-fabrication.

Biofilms lighting storm: the bright battle against superbugs
Danger! Antibiotic bacteria resistance is a serious human threat. The evolution of such superbugs necessitates a revolution in our defense strategies. We must now look towards pioneering solutions, specifically, light-activatable molecules. These innovative agents target not just the bacteria, but also the matrix components that the bacteria form when in their protective biofilm state. This animation brings to life the research led by Dr. Joaquim Torra, Dr. Cristina Flors and and myself, offering an insight into a future where we might successfully combat the looming peril of antibiotic resistance.

Pioneering Osmium Compounds: A New Frontier in Cancer Treatment
This animation was created in collaboration with Scixel (www.scixel.com) and inspired by the groundbreaking work of Dr. Ana Pizarro and her team at IMDEA Nanociencia. Traditional chemotherapy treatments, while effective, often come with undesired side effects. This animation explores the untapped potential of osmium compounds in the fight against cancer. Previously thought to be inert, these osmium compounds have been reactivated by researchers, and intriguingly, they’ve achieved this with water. By incorporating a water molecule into the osmium structure, a reversible ring formation is promoted. This ring acts like a swing door, opening and closing, which inhibits the formation of inert osmium species. These complexes play a pivotal role in the conversion of pyruvate to lactate within cancer cells, with the balance between the two being a key aspect of cancer progression.

Revolutionizing 2D Material Interfaces: A Breakthrough in Covalent Heterostructures
In the realm of 2D materials, stacking atomically thin layers to create functional heterostructures has been a common practice. However, the weak van der Waals bonds in these structures have posed challenges in building robust multi-purpose devices due to interface limitations. This animation was created in collaboration with Scixel (www.scixel.com) and shows the groundbreaking work of researchers Enrique Burzurí and Emilio M. Pérez from IMDEA Nanociencia. For the first time, they’ve covalently connected two 2D materials: MoS2 and graphene, using a unique bifunctional molecule. This innovative approach, detailed in Nature Chemistry (10.1038/s41557-022-00924-1), not only enhances the electronic properties of the heterostructure but also paves the way for potential applications by combining the best of MoS2’s semiconducting properties with graphene’s high carrier mobility.
