Acta Student Award to Dr. Martina Cihova
Martina Cihova, currently postdoc at the Laboratory of Metal Physics and Technology (LMPT), has been awarded with an Acta Student Award for her primary contribution to the Acta Biomaterialia manuscript "The role of zinc in the biocorrosion behavior of resorbable Mg–Zn–Ca alloys". The work resulted from another great collaboration between LMPT, the Medical University of Graz, and Empa Dübendorf.
The external pageaward will be presented at the Acta Symposium during the TMS 2021 conference in Orlando, Florida, USA, March 14-18, 2021. It comes with a cash prize of $2,000 and a reimbursement of travel expenses to the TMS conference.
Congratulations to Martina!
