IN MEMORIAM

Prof. Dr. María Beatriz Guglielmotti
(1950 -2016)

We deeply regret to announce the passing of Dr. Guglielmotti last April 26. She was one of the most enthusiastic and helpful members of our journal's Editorial Committee. A brain tumor quickly ended a life dedicated to dental science and university management.
Dr. Guglielmotti was a member of the Researcher's Career at the National Council for Scientific and Technical Research (CONICET, Argentina), being an outstanding researcher in the field of biocompatibility of dental implants/ bone substitutes and bone biology.
Since 2002 she was Full Professor of the Department of Oral Pathology, School of Dentistry, Buenos Aires University.
Throughout her fruitful life's work as teacher and researcher, she published numerous papers in international journals, made many presentations at congresses, taught graduate and postgraduate courses, directed PhD and Master's theses and directed researchers and fellows.
From a very young age, she divided her time among scientific activities and university management tasks, having held several positions, including Dean of the School of Dentistry at Buenos Aires University from 2006 to 2014 and Vice-Rector of Buenos Aires University from 2008 to 2010.
Her teachers, colleagues, disciples, students and especially her friends will always remember her great capacity for work and her boundless, selfless generosity in sharing and teaching her knowledge.
