Dear friends,
The 2021 ESpinRed School on Spintronics was organized by ESpinRed, the Spanish Network on Spintronics in May 2021, with the collaboration of the Spanish Chapter of the IEEE Magnetics Society and the Spanish Club of Magnetism.
The Spanish Network on Spintronics was started an funded in 2018 by the Spanish Funding Agency for Research (MAT2017-90771-REDT/AEI/ 10.13039/501100011033) to allow and promote synergies among research groups active on the subject along our whole country, following the stream of the SpinTronicFactory in the European realm.
One of the objectives of the Network, since the conception was to organize specialized courses to form future doctors and researchers in the field, and to enhance interactions between nodes of the community. Research on magnetism has a long tradition in Spain, dating back to the beginning of the XXth century, with the seminal contributions of Professor Blas Cabrera and his disciples. Spintronics is one of the most modern branches of magnetism, with application success already in the global market, and great horizons for future developments.
The course offered a basic introduction to Spintronics, with a total 21 lectures and 16 talks. We were glad to count with a group of lecturers of the highest international excellence:

Agustina Asenjo (CSIC) – MFM techniques and spin textures
María Vélez (U Oviedo) – Topological Charges and Emergent Fields
Emerging materials for spintronics: oxides, 2D systems, etc
Stephan Roche – (CIN2) – Graphene and 2D Spintronics
Luis Hueso – (CIC-Nanogune) – Molecular Spintronics
