Pedro Luis Arias and Alexander Lopez-Urionabarrenechea are in the group of 2% of the researchers most cited in scientific publications, according to the Stanford University ranking.

First publication date: 15/02/2023

There are 151 researchers from the University of the Basque Country in the group of 2% of those most cited in scientific publications: 99 in the senior list (which corresponds to the mentions the researcher receives in his professional career), 126 in the last year list (in this case the mentions for 2021) and 74 in both lists. This is recorded in the latest Stanford University Ranking of the World Scientists: World's Top 2% Scientists. According to this, the Basque public university is the second most influential in this ranking, after the University of Barcelona.

Pedro Luis Arias and Alexander Lopez-Urionabarrenechea of Supren research team appear on these lists this year. Congratulations!

The innovation radar from the EU have positively assessed the two innovations described in SherLOHCk project

First publication date: 07/12/2022

Within the research tasks carried out in EU funded SHERLOHCK project, the expert of the innovation radar from the EU, have positively assessed the two innovations described in the mid-term report, specifically:

  • Improved productivity of bimetallic catalyst with reduced platinum content (or PGM-Free) for more efficient dehydrogenation (hydrogenation) reaction of benzyltoluene (BT) as LOHC.
  • Oxidative treatment of deactivated catalyst systems for in-situ catalyst reactivation.

Furthermore, they have identified FAU, UPV/EHU, HYDROGENIOUS, EVONIK and the CEA as key European innovators. Congratulations!
