"The FP7 NMP Project MultiPlat: Gender Issues of a Technology Oriented Research Project";
Poster: 2nd European Gender Summit 2012, Brussles, B; 29.11.2012 - 30.11.2012; in: "2nd European Gender Summit 2012", European Science Foundation, (2012).

The MultiPlat project conceptualises, introduces and fabricates novel biomimetic, selective ion-conductive nanometric-thin membranes with highly ordered structure as a multipurpose platform for range of applications. The functionalisation will be created in a manner analogous to that in biological cells, thus merging artificial and biological. In this way the project imparts the functionalities of a living structure to our artificial nano-building blocks, ensure smart behaviour and enable a quantum leap in many applications of utmost importance for our present and future needs.
Ensuring gender equality means giving equal consideration to the life patterns, needs and interests of both women and men. MultiPlat was submitted in support of the development of an innovative fabrication paradigm that has societal impact and benefits for the European citizen.
It was essential that the partners, through their work, ensured that all social groupings are encouraged to participate in the programme. In this way, the consortium can significantly contribute to the achievement of the ERA in promoting gender equality and accessing the untapped potential of society.
