Donostia has become the epicenter of research in spintronics and orbitronics this week with the celebration of Spin & Orbit at the Gipuzkoa Campus of the University of the Basque Country, a conference that brings together world experts in these innovative fields of physics, crucial for the development of the electronics of the future. 

Spin Orbitronics provides a challenging and innovative framework for training early-stage researchers with excellent prospects for a career in industry and academia. In this promising area, SPEAR proposes a multidisciplinary European network, composed of 7 universities, 3 research centers and 7 small and medium sized companies, which will provide state-of-the-art training for early-stage researchers (ESRs) in the field of fundamental and applied Spin Orbitronics.
