The ICIQ Summer Fellowship Programme 2025 has been successfully concluded, offering a hands-on learning experience to eleven students. This unique opportunity, granted by ICIQ through the Severo Ochoa Excellence programme, provided the participants to immerse themselves in research projects, gaining insights and practical skills in chemistry and related fields.
Throughout the programme, the students were mentored by a PhD student or a senior researcher under the supervision and guidance of an ICIQ Group Leader, enabling them to apply theoretical knowledge to practical scenarios. This hands-on approach allowed participants to deepen their understanding of the subject matter while enhancing their problem-solving abilities in a research environment.
This week, during the closing ceremony of the Summer Fellows 2025 programme, all participants presented the research projects they have been working on during these two months of training. It was a working session that served as a shining example of emerging talent and research.
Reflecting on the programme’s success, Prof. Antonio M. Echavarren, ICIQ Group Leader and Scientific Director of the Severo Ochoa Programme at the Institute, stated, “throughout the programme, the students have displayed remarkable curiosity, commitment, and a genuine passion for science. Their performance not only reflects their potential but also inspires optimism for the future of research in chemistry.”
The closing ceremony took place yesterday, September 9th, and was chaired by Prof. Beatriz Prieto-Simón, Group Leader at ICIQ, and Dana Loughran, ICIQ Talent Officer.
These fellowships are funded by ICIQ with the support of the “Severo Ochoa Centres of Excellence Program (CEX2024-001469-S funded by MICIU/AEI/10.13039/501100011033)
