The project was submitted under the Ministry’s 2020 Call for R&D&I Projects, and its principal investigators are Dr. Valeria Grazú, professor of Nanobiotechnology in the Biotechnology Engineering program at Universidad ORT Uruguay Dr. Jesús Martínez de la Fuente of the Institute of Nanoscience and Materials of Aragon (CSIC-UniZar).
The project strengthens the ties between the Protein Technology research group and the Spanish group, with which it has been collaborating for several years on the development of nanodevices for enzyme-mediated cancer treatment.
The activities will take place over a four-year period, beginning in September 2021.
