The official asserted that Venezuela “has advocated for the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons and nuclear threats,” noting that the country became, in 1955, “the first in Latin America to have an institute dedicated exclusively to nuclear science and research, now the Venezuelan Institute of Scientific Research (IVIC),” in addition to having a research nuclear reactor.

Authorities from Venezuela and China held a meeting in Caracas with the aim of strengthening their trade ties in key sectors such as exports and technological development.

The meeting was attended by Venezuelan Minister of People’s Power for Foreign Trade, Coromoto Godoy; Venezuelan Consul in Guangzhou, Manuel González; as well as Chinese Ambassador to Venezuela, Lan Hu; and Sector Vice President, Gabriela Jiménez.

The meeting, aimed at strengthening bilateral trade relations, allowed for the evaluation of “concrete actions to overcome logistical obstacles and enhance the export capacity of Venezuelan products. Godoy emphasized the joint commitment to advancing the internationalization of national goods, aligned with the PAE Plan: Produce, Supply, and Export!, in line with the guidance of President Nicolás Maduro.”

Likewise, on her official Instagram account, she stated: “We are working in a coordinated manner to achieve important goals in the internationalization of our products.”

The official highlighted the interest of both nations in raising investment and technological exchange, particularly in key sectors “such as artificial intelligence, a topic recently addressed by the sector’s vice president, Gabriela Jiménez, in a meeting with the Chinese ambassador to Venezuela.

The authorities of both countries seek to boost economic development, productive innovation, and international cooperation between the two nations through these meetings, which help strengthen trade relations.”

Venezuelan Minister of Science and Technology, Gabriela Jiménez, provided details last Thursday about the work of researchers from the Venezuelan Institute of Scientific Research (IVIC) on a project to improve breast cancer treatment.

Jiménez indicated that the scientists are also focusing on ways to reduce the side effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy on patients. The official posted on Instagram: “The objective of this project is to modify the drug used for breast cancer, such as Tamoxifen, and achieve synergy with a gadolinium atom to obtain positive therapeutic and radiotherapeutic effects.”

She emphasized that the IVIC team of scientists seeks “through a molecule, to reduce the adverse effects of chemotherapy.”

For his part, Álvaro Álvarez, PhD in Chemistry and project leader, noted that the objective of this project is also to reduce the dose and potency of radiation, which, he said, “also causes some inconveniences for patients.”

Álvarez explained in a video: “Once the rational synthesis has been completed, and the characterization tests have been performed, the idea is to test it on cell lines in vitro. Once that occurs, and if we are successful, it would then be tested in vivo on specimens.”
