The Universitat Jaume I of Castelló has awarded the Young Researchers prizes, announced as part of its Research Plan for 2023, to Lubertus Bijlsma (Sciences), Esther Castillo Gómez (Health Sciences), Manuel Francisco Dolz Zaragozá (Engineering and Architecture), María Lidón Moliner Miravet (Social Sciences and Law) and Agnese Sampietro (Arts and Humanities), with a cash prize of 1,500 euros for each of these researchers.

Incorporating talented researchers who contribute to the social, cultural and economic development of their local community is one of the ways to maintain the quality of research at the Universitat Jaume I. The awards are intended as a means of acknowledging the quality and excellence of the research work carried out by both early-career and junior researchers, from the post-doctoral training stage to the consolidation stage.

The aim of the research conducted by **Lubertus Bijlsma**, from the [Analytical Chemistry in Public Health and the Environment](https://www.uji.es/serveis/ocit/base/grupsinvestigacio/detall?codi=005) (Q-AMS) research group, has been to increase the knowledge of emerging pollutants and their effective removal in water treatment processes. The focus is now shifting towards wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE), a cutting-edge approach that uses wastewater as a source of information and assessment of community health.

The research of **Esther Castillo Gómez**,coordinator of the [Neuropathology and Brain Plasticity](https://www.uji.es/serveis/ocit/base/grupsinvestigacio/detall?codi=317) (NEST) research group, has focused on understanding the role of brain plasticity in mental health, specifically in stress-related socio-affective disorders in vulnerable stages of life, such as childhood, adolescence or senescence. The consequences of stress were studied using various biotechnological approaches and the advanced analysis of images and brain samples.

The contributions of **Manuel F. Dolz Zaragozá**,from the[High Performance Computing and Architectures](https://www.uji.es/serveis/ocit/base/grupsinvestigacio/detall?codi=201) (HPC&A) research group, are in the areas of High Performance Computing (HPC) and Computational Science, and aim to optimise science and engineering applications, as well as contribute to the fight against climate change and generate advances in various sectors such as the development and improvement of artificial intelligence applications for healthcare, which can lead to more accurate diagnoses, better care and personalised treatments.

**Lidón Moliner Miravet**, coordinator of the [Education, Art and Society](https://www.uji.es/serveis/ocit/base/grupsinvestigacio/detall?codi=303) (EDARSO) research group. has approached her work from an inclusive perspective, with the aim of creating fairer and more engaged societies through the application of reciprocal peer tutoring in areas such as mathematics, the life stories of LGBTIQ+ teachers as a pedagogical resource, and cooperative learning through community music. In all cases, the aim is to foster the development of more active, critical and inclusive citizens.

The research work of **Agnese** **Sampietro**, from the [Sociolinguistics](https://www.uji.es/serveis/ocit/base/grupsinvestigacio/detall?codi=093) research group, has been the linguistic study of multimodality on the Internet, i.e. the integration of text, images and other semiotic resources in digital communication. Her doctoral thesis was the first work on emojis to open an original line of research that is now being continued by researchers around the world.
