In Affinity2023, held in Lisbon in 5-7th June 2023, Gonçalo Teixeira, PhD student in Bioengineering from the MIT-Portugal, was awarded with the Younger Investigator Award for best oral presentation. His talk was about ‘Odorant-binding proteins based sensors for volatile organic compounds detection’. #SCENT_project #ENSURE_project
On 5-7th June 2023, the members of our lab organized the 25th Meeting of the International Society for Molecular Recognition: Affinity 2023. It was a big opportunity for us to present our work under the following projects: #ENSURE_Project #SMASUS_project #PURE_project #PROTEIOS_project. It was a pleasure to meet you all and we are looking forward to …
We have an open call for applications for Master students!! If you are interested in pursuing a Master thesis in our group during the academic year 2023/24 have a look at our proposed topics!- Improved methods for the non-invasive diagnostic of urinary tract cancers- Production of recombinant proteins in cell-free systems- Development of peptide-based fiber-mats- Protein …
This month, Susana Palma and Carina Esteves attended to Tec2med Summit. We have been showing our e-nose and Susana did an oral presentation “Olfaction-inspired technologies for healthcare”, as part as #ENSURE_project and #SCENT_project.
Excited to share fantastic news! We have a freshly published paper in Separation and Purification Technology. In this work, the authors explore “A scalable method to purify reflectins from inclusion bodies”. This work was developed under the scope of the #Sea2See_project and #Proteios_project. Congratulations to the authots. For more info: tinyurl.com/3w6chrrm
On 19th April, we attended at EXPOFCT and we explained our research projects. Students could see the work of the e-nose device and its application for bladder cancer diagnostics in ENSURE project . We showed the versatility of proteins’ application in sensing and production of smart bio-based materials (PROTEIOS project). The importance of the efficient …
The #SMASUS_project aims to create smarter and more sustainable packaging. In this project, we are collaborating with CeNTi and Neutroplast.
We have a freshly published paper in Sensors MDPI. In this work, the authors explore “Effect of Polymer Hydrophobicity in the Performance of Hybrid Gel Gas Sensors for E-Noses”. This work was developed under the scope of #SCENT_project and #ENSURE_project. Congratulations to the authors! For more info: check the QR Code or doi: 10.3390/s23073531
In this week, we attend at #SupraLife First School – Functional Supramolecular Polymeric Biomaterials and Carina Esteves shared her work about ionic liquids materials in a poster presentation. #Ensure_Project #SCENT_project
Our researcher Cátia Soares just started her PhD in Biotechnology! She holds a Bachelor in Biochemistry and a Master in Biotechnology both from @fctnova . She believes that her research will contribute to implement protein-based materials as sustainable and functional bio-based materials. We wish you all the luck! #PROTEIOS_project
