O Portal de sites destina-se ao alojamento das páginas web das várias iniciativas e projectos desenvolvidos pela FCT NOVA ou que, de alguma forma, estão associados à Faculdade.
On March 29th, MARLab coordinator Marta Martins participated in the round table "Sustainability, quo vadis?" as part of the event "Encontro com Ciência – A Terra no Universo e nós na Terra", held in Paredes de Coura. The role of sustainability was discussed, highlighting the importance of preserving ecological balance in the face of global environmental challenges.
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a high-performance thermoplastic that, when combined with Additive Manufacturing (AM), presents considerable advantages in producing customizable implantable medical devices.
We developed three-dimensional cancer models that mimic the interactions in the TME and the tumor structure and complexity is of great relevance to cancer research and drug development.
A simple method for developing ToC devices in under 10 minutes, using thermo-sensitive polystyrene sheets – “Shrinky-dinks”. The process only involves pattern engraving, layer bonding, and heat shrink to the final size.
Novel transfection approach for gene therapy applications in 2D and 3D tumor models based on the use of mild photothermy mediated by AuNPs combined with visible laser irradiation that might pave the way for the spatial-temporal control of gene modulation - PAPER
Liquid biopsies, and particularly the analysis of circulating tumor DNA, are emerging as an interesting means for diagnosis, prognosis, and predictive biomarker discovery.

We use membrane-localized magnetic hyperthermia to promote the internalization of cell-impermeant probes.
Transitioning from 2D to 3D models demands an understanding of altered internalization mechanisms and microenvironmental influences.
