Lecture with Tatiana Sampaio at IFTM in Patrocínio Sold Out in 28 Minutes
A lecture featuring scientist Tatiana Sampaio at IFTM in Patrocínio sold out just 28 minutes after registration opened.
The event "Mostra Mulheres Extraordinárias" featuring biologist and researcher Tatiana Sampaio at the Instituto Federal do Triângulo Mineiro (IFTM) in Patrocínio quickly gained popularity, selling out all available spots within 28 minutes of registration opening. This reflects not only the community's eagerness to learn from esteemed professionals but also highlights the importance of female representation in scientific fields.
Tatiana Sampaio leads a research team focused on developing polylaminin, a substance that shows promise in helping individuals with spinal cord injuries regain mobility, which adds significant intrigue to her upcoming talk. According to Bianca Gonçalves, the event coordinator, many individuals from both the academic community and the general public were eager to attend, but the decision was made to keep the venue limited to preserve the event's exclusivity.
Despite the overwhelming demand, Gonçalves emphasized that there would be no change in the venue, as Sampaio specifically wishes to engage with the event at IFTM. This decision underscores the importance of place in facilitating connections and discussions around women in science, marking a significant moment for local academic engagement and community interest in cutting-edge research.
