She is the inventor[2] of the gas-diffusion electrocrystallization process,[3][4][5][6][7] which has been heralded as a Great EU-funded innovation[8] by the Innovation Radar of the European Commission. She is renown in Mexico and Europe for her scientific and patenting activity in the domains of metal recovery from wastewater and synthesis of nanoparticles.[9][10][11][12]
Honours
edit- She is a member of the Mexican National System of Researchers since 2011, holding the SNI II distinction since 2019.[13]
- She received the award Distinguished Mexicans (in Spanish) in 2022, [14] which is the highest honour a Mexican can receive owing their outstanding trajectory abroad Mexico.
