Today, November 14th, World Diabetes Day, the programme of IACTEC-Medical Technology of the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) dedicated to the transfer of astrophysical technology to the biomedical field, celebrates the progress obtained in the development of an anthropomorphic model of a foot, which permits the simulation of pathologies of a diabetic foot. Within the MUTANT( Multimodal Tissue phANToms) line of resarch, oriented towards the development of components which simulate biological tissues, an anthropomorphic model of a foot is being developed, whose outer sheath is

A team of researchers from the cosmology group at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias has obtained one of the most accurate measurements of the masses of clusters of galaxies, and of their relation with the amount of hot gas in these clusters. To do this they have studied the dynamics of the galaxies in 570 clusters selected from the catalogue produced by the Planck satellite (ESA). This study has been produced during four years of work, in which over 10,000 spectra have been obtained with the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo (TNG) and the Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) at the Roque de los

Almost a decade after starting observations of the sky in the northern hemisphere, the QUIJOTE Collaboration has presented an initial series of 6 scientific articles, giving the most accurate description we have of the polarization of the emission of the Milky Way in the microwave range. This is a window of observation not previously explored, which provides complementary information to that obtained previously by space missions (Planck and WMAP) dedicated to the study of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB), the fossil radiation left behind by the Big Bang. The new results allow
