Formación de Capital Humano


Durante mi labor académica he formado a 6 estudiantes de magíster en Nutrición y Alimentos, y Calidad e Inocuidad alimentaria. Todos han finalizado su formación. Dos de ellos continuaron con estudios de Doctorado en Nutrición y alimentos y dos actualmente son docentes universitarios (Universidad de Chile y Universidad Católica del Maule).


Difusión y Transferencia


Presentaciones (conferencias) en diferentes congresos relacionados con medicina, nutrición, alimentos y salud en general. Respecto al rol de los lipidos y la nutrición para asegurar el adecuado crecimiento y desarrollo de un individuo, así como en la prevención y/o tratamiento de enfermedades.
