June 2025. XV Congreso Nacional y V Congreso
Internacional de Tecnología Aplicada a Ciencias de la Salud
J. Angel Navarro-Becerra delivered an invited talk entitled ‘Microbubbles: An Emerging Technology in Diagnosis and Targeted Therapy,’ organized by UASLP in San Luis Potosí, Mexico.
February 27, 2026: Our first Spanish-language science outreach article, titled “Microburbujas: del sueño de la bala mágica de Ehrlich a una realidad tangible”, has been published in the journal Avance y Perspectiva of the Cinvestav.

April 27–28, 2026: My undergraduate student, Luis E. Corona-Martínez, participated in the V Congreso Estatal de Materiales (Capítulo Estudiantil de la Sociedad Mexicana de Materiales—Nuevo León), presenting the poster “Efecto de la Arquitectura del Polietilenglicol en la Encapsulación de Doxorubicina en Microburbujas” at CIDET-FIME.
May 29, 2026: Our research team had the opportunity to present our latest project at InnovaFest Monterrey 2026, held at Cintermex, one of the region's premier innovation and entrepreneurship events.
The project focuses on the development of theranostic microbubble technologies for precision breast cancer diagnosis and therapy, integrating molecular imaging and targeted treatment within a single ultrasound-responsive platform.
June 4–6, 2026: Our students, Luis E. Corona-Martínez (Undergraduate Student) and Brayan A. Álvarez Durán (M.Sc. Student) participated in CONITACS 2026 at the Centro de Investigaciones en Óptica (CIO) in León, Guanajuato, Mexico, where they presented recent findings from our research group.
Luis E. Corona-Martínez presented the poster:
“Efecto de la Arquitectura del Polietilenglicol en la Encapsulación de Doxorubicina.”
Brayan A. Álvarez Durán presented the poster:
“Caracterización in vitro de microburbujas como plataforma teranóstica dirigida a la integrina αvβ3.”
June 23, 2026: Annet Samara Pérez Lara has successfully defended her undergraduate thesis, “Estudio del efecto del ultrasonido y microburbujas en la acción terapéutica del metotrexato,” and earned her B.Sc. degree in Ingeniería Física from the Facultad de Ciencias en Física y Matemáticas, Universidad Autónoma de Chiapas (UNACH).
July 5–10, 2026: Our student, Brayan A. Alvarez-Duran, presented his research at the Gordon Research Conference (GRC): Endothelial Cell Phenotypes in Health and Disease, held in Castelldefels (Barcelona), Spain. The meeting brings together leading researchers to discuss cutting-edge advances in endothelial biology, vascular homeostasis, and disease.
His poster, "Integrin-Associated Endothelial Phenotypic States Assessment Using Theranostic Microbubbles," highlights the development of αvβ3-targeted theranostic microbubbles for endothelial phenotypic assessment and localized ultrasound-triggered therapy.
