I delivered my 2nd (virtual) lecture in #Spanish to the AIChE Student Chapter at Universidad Nacional de San Antonio Abad del Cusco (Perú).

It was an amazing experience to talk about the #GreenChemistry history, principles, and applications and my PhD research project.

On April 2024 I was reconignized as one of the #ACSSustainabilityStars by the @amerchemsociety.bsky.social.

I could write a book describing how the ACS changed my academic and professional backgrounds and gave me precious friendships!
