Lara's keynote was a long-term historical analysis of sites in Latin America, from 1500 BCE to the present, “in search of concepts that define those territories in opposition to our canonical Eurocentric theories.”
During a virtual symposium that was part of the event, Mogas-Soldevila presented the groundbreaking research underway at Weitzman’s DumoLab. In her presentation at the symposium, Mogas-Soldevila described how researchers in her lab “work together to scale methods from implants and diagnostics, that are used to heal the human sciences, to find ways for these to heal the planet with a regenerative way of building.” The Award will support the lab’s focus on design and manufacturing of bio-concrete and bio-lattice material systems.
