Desiré Venegas Bustos was awarded the 2nd Prize for Oral Presentation at the 12th European Elastin Meeting, held in Reims, France, for her presentation titled “Advancing regenerative therapies: elastin-like recombinamer hydrogels for degenerative joint diseases.”
On 25th October 2024, our student, Diana Juanes Gusano, successfully defended her Doctoral dissertation. The objective of her thesis, entitled “Development of Novel Wound Dressing Based on Elastin-like Recombinamers for Skin Regeneration”, is to develop novel wound dressings through the synthesis of elastin-based scaffolds, including membranes and hydrogels. In particular, […]
Desiré Venegas Bustos’s poster, titled «Protein-engineered microcapsules for targeted spheroid delivery as a novel treatment for diffuse cartilage lesions,» has been awarded the Best Poster Presentation Award at the World Biomaterials Congress 2024 (WBC2024) in Daegu, South Korea.
This is the highest honour that the global biomaterials community can bestow on outstanding scientists. He joins a group of fewer than 500 of the world’s most respected biomaterials scientists. The ceremony will take place at the World Biomaterials Congress (WBC2024) in Daegu, South Korea on May 27, 2024.
