Prof. Laura Lechuga, new Fellow of the RSC

by Oriol Roig

Prof. Laura Lechuga is the newest Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry.

Prof. Laura Lechuga, leader of the ICN2 Nanobiosensors and Bioanalytical Applications Group, has been admitted as a Fellow in the Royal Society of Chemistry.

The Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) was founded in 1980. The organisation carries out research, publishes journals, books and databases, and hosts conferences, seminars and workshops. The designation of FRSC is given to researchers who have made significant contributions to chemistry.

Prof. Lechuga received the ‘Juan de la Cierva’ National Research Award some weeks ago, and this is yet another recognition of her invaluable work. Currently, she is leading the European project CoNVaT, a project that aims to develop a fast, cheap and handy test device for the diagnosis of the COVID-19.
