The Instituto de Física Corpuscular (IFIC), 'Severo Ochoa' Center of Excellence, offers 9 positions within Predoctoral Contracts 2018 Programme (Formación de Personal Investigador – Research Personnel Training), funded by Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities. The fellowships cover a four-year period to study in one of the PhD research projects offered by IFIC. Deadline: 29th October.
The Instituto de Física Corpuscular will host this new programme of the Valencian Agency of Innovation (AVI) to boost knowledge transfer to the industry of Valencia region. The goal is to develop new technologies based on the research activity of IFIC, the only Severo Ochoa Centre of Excellence in Valencia devoted to particle physics, astroparticle and nuclear physics.
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the biggest and more powerful particle accelerator in the world, starts a new era. The works of the so-called High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) have begun. These improvements of the machine and its experiments will increase the number of collisions from 2026, which means more chances to make new discoveries. IFIC participates in the upgrade of ATLAS and LHCb experiments.
IFIC will host again this summer a programme aimed at undergraduate students in Physics. From July 9th to 20th the students will join one of the experimental research groups of the institute and they will learn about the detectors and the analysis techniques used in our field. The programme is open to students of the Degree in Physics irrespective of their year.
A research team from IFIC and UPV participates in an international challenge to develop a breast cancer diagnosis assistance system using Artificial Intelligence. Using artificial neural networks and algorithms, the system reduces false positives in mammograms with reliability in the detection of cancer close to 90%, the highest of such systems and very useful for clinical practice.
El acuerdo se enmarca en una serie de colaboraciones que el Instituto de Física Corpuscular tiene con los principales centros de investigación en Física como el CERN, DESY o Fermilab.
