The María Cano University Foundation had an outstanding participation in the 10th University Meeting “Challenges and Strategies in the Face of Chronic Diseases”, held on November 14, 2025, in Cali. The institution presented two scientific posters and two oral presentations, demonstrating the strength of its research processes and its commitment to studying noncommunicable chronic diseases.

This academic presence not only allowed the dissemination of research results and advances but also fostered spaces for reflection and exchange with other universities and health-sector institutions. Such dialogue enhances the research training of students and faculty while strengthening the visibility and impact of the institution’s research groups.

The María Cano University Foundation reaffirmed its role as a key actor in the search for innovative, evidence-based strategies for the comprehensive approach to chronic diseases. Its scientific contributions and practical experiences enriched the discussions at the meeting, supporting the development of proposals aligned with current public-health needs.

Participation in high-level academic events such as this national meeting continues to drive the institution’s research development. It also reinforces María Cano’s influence on the formulation of health policies, programs, and practices that directly benefit the local and regional community.
