NANBIOSIS joined the launch of Misión Aragón: Cracks de la Ciencia, promoting scientific outreach and inspiring future generations through Aragón’s research excellence.
Zaragoza, July 2026 — NANBIOSIS took part in the presentation of Misión Aragón: Cracks de la Ciencia, a new science outreach initiative promoted by the Government of Aragón to inspire scientific vocations among young people by celebrating the region’s most influential researchers and world-class scientific infrastructures.
The initiative, presented on 30 July 2026 at the Pablo Serrano Museum in Zaragoza, introduces a collection of 15 collectible cards featuring ten outstanding Aragonese scientists and the five Unique Scientific and Technical Infrastructures (ICTS) located in Aragón, including NANBIOSIS. Through an engaging, game-based format, the project encourages children and families to discover the people, institutions and facilities that are shaping scientific progress while exploring the region of Aragón.
Representing CIBER-BBN and NANBIOSIS, Gabriel Alfranca, Internationalization and Communication Manager, attended the event and was interviewed about the importance of scientific infrastructures and communication in bringing research closer to society. His participation highlighted the role that research platforms such as NANBIOSIS play in supporting biomedical innovation and making cutting-edge science accessible beyond the laboratory.
Among the featured cards is CIBER-BBN, which can be collected at La Alfranca (Zaragoza) alongside the card dedicated to scientist Martina Bescós. By including leading research infrastructures in the collection, the initiative showcases the scientific ecosystem that enables discoveries with societal impact and encourages younger generations to engage with science and technology.
The event also acknowledged the recent National Research Award Juan de la Cierva for Knowledge Transfer received by Jesús Martínez de la Fuente, Research Professor at CSIC, researcher at INMA (CSIC–University of Zaragoza), and one of the Coordinators of CIBER-BBN. The award recognizes his outstanding career in nanobiotechnology and his exceptional contribution to transforming scientific research into real-world biomedical applications, reinforcing Aragón’s position as a hub for scientific excellence and innovation.
Through initiatives such as Misión Aragón: Cracks de la Ciencia, public institutions, research centres and scientific infrastructures are working together to promote scientific culture, foster STEAM vocations and inspire the next generation of researchers by demonstrating that science is both accessible and capable of transforming society.
