MODELO DE INTERVENCIÓN DEL TEC

El Tec de Monterrey cuenta con el Modelo de Intervención del Tec ante el COVID-19. Este modelo se lleva a cabo en colaboración con los actores importantes en todos los niveles de gobierno: municipal, estatal y federal, y con empresas, universidades y comunidades.

La Institución se encuentra identificando demandas de la sociedad para generar rápidas soluciones para enfrentar los retos de la pandemia así como las que buscaremos implementar para resolver las secuelas financieras, sociales, de salud entre otras una vez superada la urgencia.

SOLUCIONES TECNOLÓGICAS
/Soluciones

A continuación se describen las fichas técnicas de los productos, desarrollados en el Tec de Monterrey, con capacidad de dar solución a diferentes necesidades relacionadas a COVID-19.

* Careta MADiT
Dispositivo de protección personal, disminuye la probabilidad de exposición a salpicaduras y aerosoles de fluidos corporales que se generen durante la atención médica, protegiendo boca, nariz y ojos.

* Máscara de tipo buzo contra COVID-19
Esta solución tecnológica de protección es ideal para el personal de salud. La máscara cuenta con membranas para salida de aire de manera circular a través de coples. Con la tecnología de la impresión 3D fue posible que la máscara tipo buzo se convirtiera en una alternativa para protección del virus.

* Laboratorios virtuales
Plataformas de equipamiento de laboratorio de muy bajo costo en base a emuladores computacionales de Controladores Programables y Paneles de Operación (Dispositivos HMI), así como Maquinas Virtuales o Máquinas de Realidad Virtual para la emulación de los procesos de manufactura.

* Laboratorios remotos
Recursos físicos de laboratorio accesibles a distancia mediante sistemas de telepresencia.

*Laboratorios Ciber Físicos
Plataformas que integran elementos físicos y virtuales perfectamente acoplados, donde los elementos físicos de laboratorio para la realización de experimentos y prácticas de automatización, robótica y control, están equipadas con dispositivos reales de control y máquinas de realidad virtual para la emulación de procesos.

* Mapa de trazabilidad por Estado y Municipio COVID-19
La plataforma www.mexicovid19.mx es un esfuerzo conjunto de un grupo de alumnos y profesores del Tecnológico de Monterrey para dar seguimiento y fácil acceso a la información de salud más relevante en el contexto de la pandemia de coronavirus en México.

CONEXIÓN A OTROS SITIOS

MexiCovid19
El sitio www.mexicovid19.mx es un esfuerzo conjunto de alumnos, profesores e investigadores del Tec para dar seguimiento a la información de salud en el contexto de la pandemia, como el mapa coroplético del número de contagios por estados, así como diferentes análisis realizados por expertos en Ciencia Política, usando herramientas de visualización e investigación aplicada.

Expert Core
Este sitio desarrollado por la Dirección de Investigación presenta el trabajo científico realizado por cada uno de los investigadores del Tec de Monterrey, mostrando toda su producción científica, como artículos, libros, número de citas, grados académicos, líneas de investigación, adscripciones y patentes solicitadas. Además, permite visualizar la interrelación entre cada uno de los investigadores. Los expertos del Tec de Monterrey trabajan para dar soluciones derivadas de la compleja situación que esta dejando el COVID-19 ¡Conócelos!

Reto Covid-19
Esta plataforma de innovación abierta y vinculación desarrollada por la Red de Oficinas de Transferencia de Tecnología, tiene como finalidad que la sociedad proponga y comparta soluciones a los retos relacionados con el COVID-19. Las posibles soluciones están divididas en 5 categorías (Salud, Comunidad, Empresas, Educación, e Información), mismas que a su vez se dividen en tres grandes rubros: Productos existentes, Servicios listos para ofrecerse y Desarrollos en proceso. ¡Participa!

Observatorio de Innovación Educativa
Compartimos una serie de recursos educativos, buenas prácticas y lecturas útiles dirigidas a docentes, personal no académico y estudiantes para hacer frente a la crisis mundial desatada por el coronavirus (COVID-19).

/Plataformas
THINK TANK POSTCOVID-19


El objetivo de esta iniciativa es fomentar el trabajo colaborativo entre expertos de diversas áreas del conocimiento de nuestra Institución, para analizar las repercusiones derivadas del COVID-19 que han desencadenado una situación sin precedente en el mundo moderno, y que nos han llevado a replantear todos nuestros sistemas y nuestra forma de vida tal cual la conocemos.
 

Para ello se requiere generar propuestas y soluciones interdisciplinarias que sean viables a la sociedad y ayuden a hacer frente a los problemas que la pandemia genere. Con este objetivo trabajan profesores, investigadores y alumnos de posgrado, lo que permitirá generar soluciones de impacto en un periodo de 2 meses.
 

Para lograrlo se han establecido diversos clústeres de trabajo que engloban problemáticas y retos por áreas:

Critical care capacity: The number to watch during the battle of COVID-19

by Shubham Singhal , Patrick Finn , Pooja Kumar, Matt Craven, and Sven Smit (McKinsey and Company)

Since the explosion of COVID most countries have put in place public health measures to “flatten the curve” and accepted the concomitant economic pull back. But there is another number everyone should watch now: the capacity in hospitals to deliver critical care in intensive care units (ICU) with ventilators. It is the metric that indicates whether hospital systems will be overwhelmed.

About the Group

The mission of our group is to generate knowledge, new applications, and developments in the area of tissue engineering and biomedical engineering combining biological and engineering concepts.

We use reactions mediated by cells and their components (e.g. enzymes and nucleic acids) to generate high-added-value products and applications. These needs are typically related to the study, diagnosis, or treatment of infectious or chronic-degenerative diseases.

Our group integrates resources of science and technology of materials and biomaterials, nanotechnology, microfluidics, microfabrication, genomics and genetic engineering, synthetic biology, and cell culture in applications that could save lives.


Research lines

• Micro and nanotechnologies for study, diagnosis and/or treatment of diseases
• Tissue engineering: Bioprinting or "bioprinting", cell and tissue culture and organ-on-a-chip systems
• Engineering of biomaterials for biomedical and pharmaceutical applications
