Cristina Méndez has been awarded by the American Society for Applied Spectroscopy!

2023 Society for Applied Spectroscopy- Atomic Section Student Award given to Cristina Méndez from GELP Research Group. As part of this Award, Cristina will present an Invited Lecture: «Building your own fs/ns-LIBS system – from desperation to success and everything in between» at SciX 2023 (https://www.scixconference.org/) (Nevada, USA, October 8-13 2023) Here you can find a short biography of Cristina: «I am a 4th year Ph.D. student working on Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) at the Spectroscopy, Lasers and Plasmas Research Group (GELP) led by Profs. Nerea Bordel and Jorge Pisonero at the University of Oviedo. My experience in LIBS dates…

Congratulations Dr. Fernández-Menéndez!!
