Erik Dimitrov from the Institute of Polymers at BAS (student at the Medical University of Sofia) was awarded one of the three prizes for the best poster of the prestigious Polymers MDPI journal at the international conference “THE SILESIAN MEETINGS ON POLYMER MATERIALS POLYMAT 2022”, organised by the Center for Polymer and Carbon Materials at the Polish Academy of Sciences (PAS). The Forum was held in the city of Zabrze, Poland, on 17 March 2022, in memory of Prof. Andrzej Dworak, foreign member of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences.
The poster on “Nucleolipid vesicles: supramolecular structures resembling spherical nucleic acids” was awarded out of 137 and presents a topical issue on the preparation of specific supramolecular nanoparticles, called liposomal spherical nucleic acids (LSNAs), with potential applicability for the development of vaccines as well as for solving health problems of public and social relevance such as the treatment of cancer and genetic diseases.
