A short video (Reel) introduction of Durán International Symposium on Sustainable Glass Processing and Applications to be held as part of SIPS 2023, at Hyatt's Dreams Playa Bonita Resort in Panama from 27 Nov to 1 Dec 2023
This major symposium is in honor of the distinguished work and lifetime achievements of Prof. Alicia Durán, a very well-known professional with deep impact in On Sustainable Glass Processing and Applications.
Alicia Durán is a Research Professor of the Spanish Research Council (CSIC) Madrid, Spain. She received a degree in Physics, from the Universidad Nacional de Córdoba (Argentina) and a PhD in Physics from Universidad Autonoma de Madrid (UAM), Spain.
Dr. Durán has directed 15 PhD theses, 9 International and one Extraordinary Prize UAM and more than 40 MSci theses. She has published over 270 articles in WOK/Scopus journals with more than 6900 citation and s an H index (WOK) 50 (the highest index in Spain in Science Materials, Ceramics). She has published 14 books and 14 book- chapters, and has given more than 40 international invited talks/keynotes from 2010-2022.
Prof. Durán became from as Associate Editor to co-editor in chief of International Journal of Applied Glass Science (IJAGS) in 2018, with Mario Affatigato as new editor-in-chief. The strategy included the design of special issues. In particular, Women in Glass in June 2020 that constitutes the first issue fully dedicated to women working in glass all over the world, gathering 17 papers from women working in 14 countries in a wide range of topics. The impact of this issue has been very important, taken as an example of how to promote the work of women in science and especially in glass sector. The guest editors, Kathleen Richardson, Lili Hu and Alicia Durán also reflect the goal of integrating West and East in our journal. A new special issue dedicated to FUNGLASS, the European glass project with the highest budget ever financed by EU, was published in October 2021.
