In addition, of the three special recognitions obtained by the Peruvian delegation at the event, one was for our university.
The gold medal was awarded to the “Automatic equipment for decontamination, purification, and concentration of sputum” project, developed by Dr. Patricia Sheen and Dr. Mirko Zimic. The invention also received special recognition from Dongguk University in South Korea.
On the other hand, the project “Peptides and methods for the detection of leishmaniasis”, by Dr. Jorge Arévalo, Dr. Eric Deharo, and Dr. Ángela Privat, was awarded the bronze medal.
