Welcome Catarina Silva!

We are delightful to welcome our new colleague Catarina to the MARlab team!

Catarina is a biologist and she's finishing her master's degree in Marine Ecology. She is currently a researcher of the PLASTISPHERE project "Understanding microplastic biota composition and dynamics along the coasts of Israel and Portugal".

The project is led by Dr. Paula Sobral and Dr. Marta Martins.

Oral talk at the Sci & Tech for Society webinar

Today, Prof. Cecília Roque gave an inspiring talk at the Sci & Tech for Society webinar!

New review on microfluidics in gas sensing

Our latest review has been published in a special issue “Gas Sensing Materials” of the MDPI open access journal Sensors.

This is a detailed overview on the use of microfluidic devices for gas sensing technologies. It summarizes different system designs using electrical and optical transduction and engineered throughout the years.

Presentation at NICE 2020 conference

Today, Prof. Cecília Roque presented our work "Intelligent gels for artificial olfaction" in NICE 2020 Online International Conference (https://www.nice-conference.com/). This is in the scope of #SCENT_project funded by the European Research Council.

Welcome to the team, Joana!

This week, we welcome Joana to our lab! She holds a bachelor in Biochemistry from FCT NOVA and is now doing the final thesis within the MSc in Biotechnology.

Joana will be working in "Odorant-binding proteins for artificial olfaction and fast diagnostics" within the #SCENT_project. Her main goal is to learn more about the world of biosensors as an emergent technology and what they could bring to mankind.

Welcome to the team, Cátia!

New year, new beginnings! Cátia started in our lab on the 1st September. She holds a bachelor in Biochemistry and is now doing the final thesis within her MSc in Biotechnology, both in FCT-NOVA.
