\n\t\t\t\t<\/picture>\n\t\t\t\tAs principais \u00e1reas tem\u00e1ticas dos traballos presentados, sinala Simal, son catro:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Identificaci\u00f3n e avaliaci\u00f3n de compostos bioactivos de fontes naturais, como algas, plantas medicinais ou coprodutos agroalimentarios.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- O uso de modelos biol\u00f3xicos, como D. Melanogaster<\/em>, C. elegans<\/em>, ou cultivos celulares, para validar efectos antioxidantes, inmunomoduladores ou antiobesidade.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- A aplicaci\u00f3n de t\u00e9cnicas anal\u00edticas de vangarda (GC\/LC-MS) e modelado computacional (Machine Learning) para a caracterizaci\u00f3n e cuantificaci\u00f3n de contaminantes e nutrac\u00e9uticos.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- A exploraci\u00f3n de mecanismos fisiol\u00f3xicos, como a epixen\u00e9tica transxeneracional ou a ferroptose inducida por fitoqu\u00edmicos, para a obtenci\u00f3n dunha visi\u00f3n biomec\u00e1nica do seu impacto na sa\u00fade.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Para o director do grupo de investigaci\u00f3n, o catedr\u00e1tico Juan Carlos Mejuto, o Simposio constit\u00fae unha oportunidade insubstitu\u00edble para que as e os investigadores en formaci\u00f3n desenvolvan competencias cient\u00edficas transversais, melloren a comunicaci\u00f3n dos seus resultados e ampl\u00eden horizontes metodol\u00f3xicos. Pola s\u00faa banda, o investigador Jianbo Xiao salienta o car\u00e1cter crecientemente internacional do grupo, que este ano contar\u00e1 cunha vintena de participantes de orixe chinesa, o que reflexa a relevancia da dimensi\u00f3n internacional e da reputaci\u00f3n global do grupo AA1 en \u00e1mbitos coma a investigaci\u00f3n sobre os polifenois ou a seguridade alimentaria, contribu\u00edndo as\u00ed a aumentar a capacidade atracci\u00f3n de talento da UVigo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Programa das presentaci\u00f3ns durante a segunda edici\u00f3n do Simposio do Grupo AA1<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Estas realidades quedan refrendades polo recente reco\u00f1ecemento da Universidade de Vigo no r\u00e1nking de Shanghai<\/a>, onde se situou como mellor universidade espa\u00f1ola e 17\u00aa a nivel mundial na \u00e1rea de Ciencia e Tecnolox\u00eda dos Alimentos. Un contexto que reforza a proxecci\u00f3n dun grupo que conta con case 50 investigadores, est\u00e1 reco\u00f1ecido pola Xunta de Galicia como Grupo de Referencia Competitiva e desenvolve destacados proxectos de investigaci\u00f3n nacionais e europeos, entre os que destacan os proxectos SOSFood<\/a>, Promiseang<\/a>, WHEATBIOME<\/a> ou AgroSpace<\/a>, sendo os tres primeiros financiados polo programa Horizon Europe<\/a> e o \u00faltimo polo programa Interreg Sudoe<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Citexvi will host, on 28 November, the II Agri-environmental and Food Research Symposium<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n
The Cidade Tecnol\u00f3xica de Vigo (Citexvi) will host the second edition of the Symposium of the Agro-environmental and Agri-food Research Group AA1 on next Friday, 28 November, thus consolidating an initiative that began last year and which had its first edition held at the Faculty of Sciences of Ourense, aiming to create an annual space for the sharing of the research lines of the group’s pre- and post-doctoral staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In its first edition, celebrated in December 2024, the Symposium brought together the majority of the AA1 group’s doctoral students, who presented 18 pieces of research with a marked multidisciplinary and international character. Furthermore, two posters were presented by students of Master’s programmes. This year, the Symposium takes another step in its consolidation as a leading forum for scientific research in Analytical Chemistry, Food Science and Technology, and Nutrition. Professor Jes\u00fas Simal G\u00e1ndara highlights that the event aims to be \u2018a catalyst for scientific advancement through rigorous debate and constructive criticism\u2019. Throughout the day, 24 PhD students from the AA1 group will present their work, and there will also be a poster session hosted by researchers from the EURLMB (EU Reference Laboratory for Monitoring of Marine Biotoxins – European Union Reference Laboratory for Marine Biotoxins), based in Vigo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The main thematic areas of the papers presented, notes Simal, are four:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Identification and evaluation of bioactive compounds from natural sources, such as algae, medicinal plants or agro-food co-products.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- The use of biological models, such as D. melanogaster, C. elegans, or cell cultures, to validate antioxidant, immunomodulatory or anti-obesity effects.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- The application of cutting-edge analytical techniques (GC\/LC-MS) and computational modelling (Machine Learning) for the characterisation and quantification of contaminants and nutraceuticals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- The exploration of physiological mechanisms, such as transgenerational epigenetics or phytochemical-induced ferroptosis, to obtain a biomechanical insight into their impact on health.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
According to the Head of the research group, Professor Juan Carlos Mejuto, the Symposium is an irreplaceable opportunity for early-career researchers to develop cross-cutting scientific skills, improve the communication of their results and broaden their methodological horizons. Researcher Jianbo Xiao highlights the group’s increasingly international character, which this year will include around twenty participants of Chinese origin, reflecting the importance of the international dimension and the global reputation of the AA1 group in areas such as polyphenol research or food safety, thus contributing to increasing the University of Vigo’s capacity to attract talent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Programme with the intervention during the second edition of the Symposium organised by Group AA1<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n These realities are endorsed by the recent recognition of the University of Vigo in the Shanghai Ranking<\/a>, where it was ranked as the best Spanish university and 17th worldwide in the field of Food Science and Technology. A context that reinforces the profile of a group that has almost 50 researchers, is recognised by the Xunta de Galicia as a Competitive Reference Group and develops outstanding national and European research projects, including SOSFood<\/a>, Promiseang<\/a>, WHEATBIOME<\/a> and AgroSpace<\/a>, the first three of which are funded by the Horizon Europe<\/a> programme and the latter by the Interreg Sudoe<\/a> programme.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
