I'm excited to share my first publication of methane electrochemical oxidation in the @nanoesc.bsky.social group. I hope this viewpoint will be a useful starting point for the community to tackle this challenging reaction

📃 NEW PAPER❗

♻️ In their new viewpoint, published in ACS Energy Letters, Dr @silviafavero.bsky.social & ICREA Prof. @mariaescesc.bsky.social (@nanoesc.bsky.social) provide insights that could help standardise protocols for electrochemical methane-to-methanol conversion.

It was an honour to present my work on SEIRAS investigations of *CO formation on PT surfaces at #ISE2025

This conference has been an invaluable occasion to meet old and new friends in electrochemistry and discuss exciting research

Silvia Favero @silviafavero.bsky.social · Jul 18

The last month has been so exciting for me, and I am thrilled to share that:

🏆I have been selected for the Juan de la Cierva fellowship

📰I have been interviewed by my homecity newspaper

🎙️I have been interviewed by the national radio station radio capital

A great thanks to the 74th Lindau Nobel Laurate meeting, for the possibility to not just meet some of the best researchers in the world, but also to take a step back and reflect on why we do research, rather than how.

#LINO25 has truly been a unique experience

Silvia Favero @silviafavero.bsky.social · Mar 27

I look forward to getting inspired by Nobel Laureates and meeting other young scientists at the Lindau meeting #LINO25.

Thanks to the Catalan research institute ICREA for the nomination and the support

📰 EXCITING NEWS❗

💡 Imagine meeting #NobelPrize winners?

🎖️ Dr Silvia Favero (@nanoesc.bsky.social) & Jung Yu have been selected by the Lindau Nobel Laureate Foundation to attend this year's meeting, focusing on #Chemistry.

👏 Congratulations! We're proud of you both!

♀️ #WOMEN TALENT PROGRAMME

💡 Today, we learned a lot from the #scientific presentations by the 2024 Women Talent Programme Awardees.

🗣️ They also participated in a roundtable discussion on women's well-being in #STEM, which wrapped up the morning.

🎖️ Finally, we announced the 2025 winners. Congrats!

I am so happy to share that I have been awarded the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellowship #MSCA, to study methane electrochemical oxidation.

I look forward to the exciting science ahead, in the NanoESC group @nanoesc.bsky.social, at the Catalan research institute @icn2.bsky.social

NanoESC Lab @nanoesc.bsky.social · Feb 14

We are thrilled to share that two amazing researchers have been awarded prestigious #MSCA 2024 fellowships to carry out their research in our group at @icn2.bsky.social! Huge congrats to @silviafavero.bsky.social and Abigail Seddon! We look forward to exciting science together in the coming years!

European Commission @ec.europa.eu · Feb 11

The 2024 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Postdoctoral Fellowship call results are in.

With a budget of €417 million, we are funding nearly 1,700 researchers from 🇪🇺 and beyond.

They will strengthen EU research in key areas such as social inclusion, AI, and cancer research ↓

Ever wondered why the same FeN4 active sites can provide such different ORR activity?
Here, we tackle this question using model macrocycles, electrochemical techniques & in-situ characterization:
