Milica Živanić presents her PhD Thesis in Biomedical Engineering

PhD student Milica Živanić defended her Doctoral Thesis "Cold plasma-treated hydrogels for multimodal cancer therapy", co-supervised by Dr.  Cristina Canal (BBT-UPC, Spain), Dr. Albert Espona (BBT - UVic, Spain), Dra. Annemie Bogaerts (UAntwerp, Belgium) and Dr. Abraham Lin (Orbits Oncology, USA), on April 4th, 2025 at EEBE (Barcelona, Spain).

The Jury was formed by Dr. Lourdes Mengual (UB, Spain) as President, Dr. Francesco Tampieri (BBT-UPC, Spain) as Secretary and Dr. Eloisa Sardella (CNR, Italy), Dr. Evelien Smits (UAntwerp, Belgium) and Dr. Gemma Fuster Orellana (UVic, Spain) as Vocals.

During her doctoral thesis, Milica carried out two research stays at the University of Antwerp (Belgium) in 2022 and 2024, under the direction of her co-supervisors, Dr. Bogaerts and Dr. Lin, who at that time was working at the institution.

Milica will stay at PlasmaMed Lab as PostDoctoral Fellow, working in AEI-Funded project "Multifunctional hydrogelS for High precisiOn targeting of urOlogic Tumors: boosting cold atmospheric plasma and Electric field technologies for combinatorial anticancer theRapies (SHOOTER)".
