Biography
Pablo Ares completed his studies in Physics at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid in 2003, and then joined Nanotec Electrónica S.L. (a company devoted to the design, development and commercialization of scanning probe microscopes, SPMs) as an Application Scientist. In 2014, he moved to the Department of Condensed Matter Physics at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (UAM), where he obtained his Ph.D. in 2017. He then joined the Graphene Group at the University of Manchester (UK), where he worked with Prof. Kostya Novoselov and Dr. Laura Fumagalli as a Marie Sklodowska Curie Fellow. In 2020, he returned to the UAM as an Assistant Professor & IFIMAC Junior Leader, where he is currently a Ramón y Cajal Fellow since 2022. He has obtained national and international competitive funding, including a prestigious ERC Starting Grant 2024 for his project (HeaT2Defects). His research activity has a strong multidisciplinary character within the framework of nanoscience and nanotechnology, focusing on novel low-dimensional systems, with particular attention to 2D materials, using and developing SPM tools.

The 14th edition of the Early Stage Researchers Workshop in Nanoscience will be held on 17th December 2024 at the conference hall of IMDEA Nanociencia. The event is open to early stage researchers (PhD students and postdocs) who are invited to present their work as oral or poster communications.
The poster session of this 14th Early Stage Researchers Workshop in Nanoscience will be celebrated in parallel to the oral communications. All poster communications will be displayed in the hall of IMDEA Nanociencia on the 17th of December, from 9.00 to 17.00 h.
An award will be given to the Best Oral Communication, Best Poster Communication, and Best Social Media Communication, awarded during the closing remarks thanks to the sponsor of the workshop.
Everyone is welcome to the event and whilst there is no cost, registration is required. Please, follow the steps on the "Registration" tab.
Throughout this meeting we will see the different research lines of Nanoscience currently being developed by a growing number of groups and discuss their latest results. Due to the variety of disciplines that Nanoscience embraces, we would like to remind that the audience will be diverse including physicists, chemists or biologists and therefore we ask the presenters to adjust their contributions to this audience.
