IDAL INVOLVED IN EXPOCIENCIA 2014

Expociencia is a doors open day organized by the University of Valencia Technology Park with the collaboration of theSchool of Engineering of the University of Valencia. Since 2012, IDAL has participated in this festive day focused on bringing science and technology closer to the broad public, especially children. Last May 24th, we were setting up an activity called “My body is electric” in which attendants saw how some of their electric biosignals were acquired and processed.

IDAL MEMBERS IN BRAZIL

IDAL members Emilio Soria and Joan Vila are spending some time in Fortaleza (Brazil) teaching a course on Data Mining to students form Labomar (Sea Sciences Institute). It is also expected to start working and research collaborations with some research gruops in Brazil.

IDAL PRESENTS A NEW WEB!

IDAL has today released to the public its new web page. The change is motivated to update the CMS to a more secure version, a change in the aesthetic of the web, more modern (in our opinion) and a lighter menu and content estructure. We hope you enjoy our new appearance.

 

Farewell, old page! May the force be with you.

IDAL EMBARKED UPON SMARTPIF PROJECT

IDAL is participating in the project entitled “Smart tools for the Prescription of orthopaedic Insoles and Footwear (SMARTPIF)”, that will officially start next May, 1st. SMARTPIF was proposed in the FP7 within a call focused on research for SMEs, being very recently approved and signed by the European Comission. The duration of the project is two years, and our partners in this adventure will be the Spanish companies “Unidad de Pie Diabético S.L.” (project’s coordinator) and “Alu Group, S. L.”, the British company “Biomech Tecnologies International Limited”, the Italian company “Eurosuole SPA”, the Luxembourg company “Lion Systems”, the Spanish technological institute “Instituto Tecnológico del Calzado y Conexas”, the British “University of Salford” and the Italian “Università Politecnica delle Marche”.
