Goal within ACES: Maria has been a member and a contributor of ACES since the foundation of the organization with the aim of supporting an excellent initiative that connects the Swedish and Spanish scientific community giving the possibility to the Spanish scientific network to adopt the positive aspects of the Scandinavian system. She believes that ACES is a point of reference for Spanish scientists in Sweden for networking and finding guidance. Besides that, Maria thinks that ACES has a great potential to bridge academia and industry for science to be applied having a positive impact in our society, and she is committed to contribute to that.
