| Artur M. Pinto graduated in Pharmaceutical Sciences, obtaining his PhD (cum laude) in Biomedical Engineering from Faculty of Engineering (FEUP), University of Porto (PT). His PhD work was carried out at Laboratory for Process Engineering, Environment, Biotechnology and Energy (LEPABE) - FEUP, INEB-i3S, and University of Washington - Bioengineering Department - Buddy Ratner´s Lab (USA). The research focus was on production and characterization of graphene-based materials and their polymer composites, and study of the interaction between biomaterials and biological components. After his graduation, Artur has been appointed as a Post-Doctoral Researcher at Materials and Interface Chemistry Lab (SMG) - Eindhoven University of Technology (NL), where he developed research work on graphene-based materials for electronic and biomedical applications, namely 3D printing of polymeric implants. Also, he was also Lecturing at the Chemical Engineering and Chemistry Department (Nanotechnology course). Following his Post-doc, Artur has been appointed as Researcher at INEB-i3S, being Principal Investigator of the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT) R&D project |
