The dean of the Faculty of Sciences of the Universidad de Santiago and CEDENNA researcher, Dr. Juan Escrig Murúa, recently published an opinion column in Radio Cooperativa, in which he analyzes in depth the impact that the convergence between nanotechnology and artificial intelligence is having globally.
Under the title “Nanotechnology + AI: the new map of power”, Dr. Escrig argues that this synergy is not only transforming strategic sectors such as health, energy and the environment, but is also shaping a new geopolitics based on knowledge, data and technological innovation.
The text highlights how this combination makes it possible to accelerate research processes, design materials with unprecedented properties and tackle complex challenges on an unprecedented scale. It also stresses the urgency for Chile to invest in its own scientific capabilities and in strategic alliances that allow it to play an active role in this quiet but decisive revolution.
In this context, Dr. Escrig highlights the role of CEDENNA as an interdisciplinary and inter-university center with more than 15 years of experience, which promotes research excellence, advanced training and the transfer of technological solutions from nanoscience.
“Power is no longer measured only in natural resources, but in the capacity to generate one’s own knowledge and turn it into well-being for society,” says the researcher.
