This summer, Jorelys De Jesus participated in the LRSM REU program at the University of Pennsylvania, working in a research lab focused on developing anti-biofouling surfaces for biomedical microfluidic devices. Her independent project involved testing polymer coatings on membranes to reduce protein and cell adhesion from human plasma. She applied techniques such as contact angle measurement, slip angle analysis, and protein…
Jesús Jiménez delivered an oral presentation at the CMaT Annual Summit, held at the University of Wisconsin–Madison in August. His talk highlighted his research on the adsorption of secretome biomarkers using TiO₂, aimed at enabling downstream analysis and monitoring in mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) manufacturing.
Congratulations to our undergraduate students for their excellent participation in the Annual BioX Symposium on Engineering, Medicine and Biology 2025! We’re proud of your dedication and the research you presented during this event. Thank you for your tremendous effort — and to your mentors for their valuable guidance! Student Presentations:
I am thrilled to share that my proposal for engineering regenerative substrates has been recommended for funding through the Puerto Rico IDeA – Network of Biomedical Research Excellence (PR-IDeA-INBRE) program. This research will enable our team to develop innovative solutions for wound healing. I am excited to be part of the PR-INBRE cohort and look…
We had an amazing experience participating in the 7th TERMIS World Congress! It was a great opportunity to share our research and exchange ideas.
