In an accessible and engaging way, the presentation explained how techniques such as ultrasound-assisted extraction can be used to recover bioactive and antioxidant compounds with potential applications in areas including food, cosmetics, biomaterials and biomedical research.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The activity provided an opportunity to bring the public closer to a line of research that is strongly connected to the local area, highlighting the richness of El Bierzo\u2019s agri-food sector and its potential to generate knowledge, innovation and new applications from local resources.<\/p>\n<p>This participation forms part of the <strong>SALBIS Research Group\u2019s<\/strong> commitment to science communication and to the development of research closely linked to the needs and opportunities of the region.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-9191\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salbis.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Territorio-lleno-de-oportunidades-300x169.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.salbis.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Territorio-lleno-de-oportunidades-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.salbis.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Territorio-lleno-de-oportunidades-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.salbis.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Territorio-lleno-de-oportunidades-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.salbis.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Territorio-lleno-de-oportunidades-640x360.png 640w, https:\/\/www.salbis.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Territorio-lleno-de-oportunidades.png 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-9187\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salbis.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Economia-lineal-economia-circular-300x169.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.salbis.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Economia-lineal-economia-circular-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.salbis.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Economia-lineal-economia-circular-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.salbis.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Economia-lineal-economia-circular-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.salbis.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Economia-lineal-economia-circular-640x360.png 640w, https:\/\/www.salbis.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Economia-lineal-economia-circular.png 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Friday, 25 September, our colleague Noelia Fl\u00f3rez-Fern\u00e1ndez took part in the European Researchers\u2019 Night with a short talk focusing on the potential of agri-food resources and by-products from El Bierzo as a source of new opportunities for research.
