In 2024, UA participated in the successful implementation of the AntofaEDUCA program, a collaborative initiative aimed at advancing education in the Antofagasta region. The program concluded with a closing ceremony in November, where participating schools presented their local development projects, collaboratively designed and implemented by teachers enrolled in the Diploma in Pedagogical Innovation in the Classroom, educational leaders from the Diploma in Pedagogical Leadership, and the students themselves.
In 2023, UA established the Centre for Biotechnology and Engineering (CEBIB), focusing on cutting-edge research in biotechnology and bioengineering. The centre aims to develop a solid scientific base and technological innovation that fosters national economic growth through interdisciplinary research, including metabolomics, protein engineering, and molecular genetics.
In 2019, UA's Centre for Astronomy collaborated with the International Astronomical Union Office of Astronomy for Development (IAU-OAD) to launch the AstroBVI project in Peru. The project distributed tactile images of 3D galaxies to visually impaired individuals, enabling them to explore astronomical concepts. This initiative reached over 160 participants, demonstrating UA's dedication to inclusive education and outreach in science.
In 2024, UA researchers developed a modular device designed for culturing biofilms and applying mechanical stress to them. This invention aims to advance studies in microbial behavior and biofilm applications, potentially impacting fields like wastewater treatment and biofouling management.
In 2023, UA introduced an optogenetic lentiviral system that enables light-controlled gene expression. This platform holds promise for precise genetic studies and therapeutic applications, offering researchers a tool to manipulate gene activity with high temporal and spatial resolution.
Also in 2023, UA developed a bilayer membrane designed to promote bone regeneration and prevent postoperative complications. This innovation could enhance healing processes in bone surgeries and implants, contributing to improved patient outcomes.
