The director of the Institute of Biological and Medical Engineering (IIBM) of the Pontificia Universidad Cat\u00f3lica de Chile, Professor Ren\u00e9 Botnar, was invited to give the lecture \"Gold Medal Talk: Coronary MR - Seeing Beyond the Lumen\"<\/strong> at the annual meeting of the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (SCMR), one of the most relevant scientific meetings worldwide in the field of cardiovascular magnetic resonance.<\/p>\n

The conference was held on February 6, 2026 in <\/strong>Rio de Janeiro<\/strong>, <\/strong>Brazil<\/strong>, bringing together physicians, scientists and specialists from around the world dedicated to the development and application of this technology in the study of the cardiovascular system.<\/p>\n

The Gold Medal Talk<\/strong> is part of the activities associated with the SCMR Gold Medal<\/strong>, the highest recognition awarded by this scientific society. This award honors researchers who have made extraordinary and innovative contributions to the advancement of cardiovascular magnetic resonance<\/strong>. Candidates for this distinction are nominated by members of the society itself, based on previously established criteria. <\/p>\n

The Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance is the leading independent international organization dedicated to promoting the development of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), fostering initiatives in education, quality control, research and specialized training<\/strong>. It also acts as a global reference for physicians, scientists and technologists working in this field. <\/p>\n

The Gold Medal Award<\/strong> is given to only one or two researchers each year<\/strong>, making the invitation to present the Gold Medal Talk a highly selective recognition within the international scientific community.<\/p>\n

For the Institute of Biological and Medical Engineering, it is a source of pride that its director has been chosen as one of the two researchers invited to give this conference in the 2026 edition<\/strong>, thus highlighting the impact and international projection of the research developed at the IIBM.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
