Pilar Portela is one of the Fulbrighters 2021 and was awarded a Fulbright Portugal Grant to go to Yale University for 5 months as part of her PhD project. Her work will focus on the in vivo manipulation of Geobacter cultures to unveil the mechanisms by which electrons are transferred to the cell’s exterior through conductive protein filaments.
New paper out! A collaboration with ISR-Lisboa from Instituto Superior Técnico on "Optical Gas Sensing with Liquid Crystal Droplets and Convolutional Neural Networks". We show the identification of 11 different volatiles by video analysis of a single liquid crystal droplet using advanced image recognition methods. Congratulations to all!

This past week, members from MARlab, with collaboration from ICNF, went back to the Sado estuary to conduct the spring sampling campaign for the Plastisphere project. The team was transported by an ICNF's boat to 2 different locations in the estuary, where we collected sediment and water samples. We took some pictures of the activities too (see below)!
