In late August, our group leader Dr. Mónica Echeverry-Rendón visited the Faculty of Chemistry and Biology at Universidad de Santiago de Chile, invited by Dr. Jonathan Andrés Ortiz. She presented the talks “Metals That Save Lives” and “Medicine à la Carte: The Future of Personalized Treatment,” sharing her team’s latest advances in biomedical biomaterials with students and researchers.
Both sides pointed to collaboration opportunities leveraging IMDEA’s advanced equipment to tackle chronic injuries and multidrug-resistant infections, and to create pathways for student research stays and internships at IMDEA Materials.
