An endothelialized bioprinted skin model as a platform for assessing UV-induced damage – Webinar 26 February

For our 26 February webinar we welcome the author of one of our Top 10 Applied Research papers from the 2024 IFSCC Congress in Brazil.
“The human skin is constantly exposed to environmental stressors, including ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which can induce biological damage and contribute to photo-carcinogenesis and photoaging. To better understand these effects and evaluate potential photoprotective strategies, we developed and characterized an endothelialized bioprinted human skin model. This webinar will explore its application in assessing UV-induced damage, as well as its potential to advance research in skin biology and cosmetic science.”

BIOGRAPHY
Ana Júlia Pasuch Gluzezak holds a PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences from the University of São Paulo, with a strong background in skin research, biofabrication and photoprotection. Her work focuses on developing advanced 3D skin models to investigate the impact of external stressors, particularly UV radiation and environmental pollution, on skin health, as well as assessing efficacy and toxicity in vitro. She has experience in tissue engineering and the evaluation of new antioxidant and photoprotective compounds. Her research has been recognized at international conferences, including the IFSCC 2024 Congress, where her study on endothelialized bioprinted skin models ranked among the Top 10 Applied Research papers.
