 Miguel de Almeida Fuzeta will be defending his PhD thesis in Bioengineering on Wednesday the 27th october 2021 at 10:00 h (https://videoconf-colibri.zoom.us/j/81143862412). During the last years, and under the supervision of Cláudia Lobato Silva from SCERG and BERG-IBB and Diana Maria Diez Gaspar from FEUP, Miguel focused his efforts on the development of Bioprocesses for the scalable manufacturing of extracellular vesicles derived from mesenchymal stromal cells. The title of the thesis is “Scalable Production of Extracellular Vesicles Derived from Mesenchymal Stromal Cells for Cancer-Targeted Drug Delivery”.

Luís Miguel Candeias Martins will be defending his PhD thesis in Biotechnology and Biosciences at Instituto Superior Técnico, Tuesday the 18th of May 2021, at 14:00 (https://videoconf-colibri.zoom.us/j/82200706553). During the last years, and under the supervision of Prof. Isabel Sá-Correia from BSRG-iBB, Luís studied the genetic tolerance determinants for multiple stresses in S. cerevisiae and the potential of oleaginous red yeasts for the efficient carbon substrates conversion present in pectin-rich hydrolysates. The title of his thesis is “Valorisation of pectin-rich agro-industrial residues by yeasts: Potential and Challenges”.

Ana Isabel Campos to Defend PhD Thesis in Biotechnology and Biosciences

Ana Isabel de Vila-Santa Braga Campos will be defending her PhD thesis in Biotechnology and Biosciences at Instituto Superior Técnico, Friday the 16th of April 2021, at 15:00 am (https://videoconf-colibri.zoom.us/j/81314376867). During the last years, and under the supervision of Nuno Mira and Frederico Ferreira from iBB, and Kristala Prather from MIT, Ana Isabel investigated how pathways for the synthesis of levulinic and itaconic acids can be engineered in yeasts. The title of her thesis is “Synthetic biology approaches to foster yeasts as hosts for the production of carboxylic acids and their derivatives: emphasis on levulinic and itaconic acids”.
