About the event

Have you ever stopped to think about what the objects around us will be like in the future? I invite you to discover the fascinating world of smart materials, those dynamic elements capable of “dialoguing” with their environment to offer us incredible solutions.

This talk is a unique opportunity to understand how science is transforming our reality, from human health to the fight against climate change.

The speaker

The session will be led by Amador Menéndez Velázquez, who will explain to us how intelligence will cease to be something exclusive to machines to be integrated directly into the materials we use daily.

Practical information

The event will take place in the Salón de actos de la Antigua Escuela de Comercio. 💡

In this meeting we will explore:

  • What smart materials are and how they respond to specific stimuli.
