The Chem&Biochem students meeting is coming back this summer!
The 3rd Chem&Biochem is taking place on the 13th of July 2023 at FCUL (8.2.30 auditorium of C8 building).
PhD students, MSc students, and BSc students working on research projects in chemistry or biochemistry are very welcome to present their work at the 3rd Chem&Biochem Meeting. Send in your abstracts now!
The program will consist of plenary lectures, oral, flash and poster communications, and a round table about “ Science beyond academia: entrepreneurship”.
General public (including Professors, Researchers, Researchers fellows, and Post-Docs) can also join us and get a sneak peek at the ongoing research projects!
Registration is mandatory but free of charge!
The Organising Committee of Chem&BioChem Students Meeting took the initiative to host a Round Table Discussion on the topic of Science beyond academia: Entrepreneurship – an essential and trending topic in our society nowadays.
Pedro Mateus completed his degree in Technological Chemistry in 2004, at FCUL, and his PhD in Chemistry at ITQB NOVA, in 2011. His doctoral work focused on anion recognition by macrobicyclic compounds. Soon after, he received a post-doctoral fellowship to develop metal complexes to bind carboxylates, amino acids, and phosphates, also at ITQB NOVA. In 2015, he moved to the IECB (U. Bordeaux, France), as a Marie Skłodowska-Curie post-doctoral fellow to develop metallofoldamers for saccharide recognition. From 2019, he worked as a contracted researcher at FCT NOVA, developing photo-responsive self-assembled nanomaterials. In late 2021, he secured an Auxiliary Researcher position at ITQB NOVA, through the highly competitive CEEC Individual. Since 2022, Pedro heads the Bio-oriented Supramolecular Chemistry lab at ITQB NOVA, which seeks to develop binders of bio-relevant targets as therapeutic agents or as analytical/diagnostic tools.
Liana C Silva is an Assistant Professor with Habilitation at Faculty of Pharmacy from the University of Lisbon (UL). She graduated in Biochemistry in 2001 at the Faculty of Sciences, UL, Portugal, and obtained her PhD degree in Chemistry (Molecular Biophysics) in 2006 at the Instituto Superior Técnico (IST-UL). She developed her postdoctoral project at the interface between molecular biophysics and biochemistry as a research fellow at the Weizmann Institute of Science (WIS), Israel and at the IST (2007-2009). In 2009, she was awarded a Ciência 2008 research position, followed by an FCT Investigator research position (2014) to set her research team focused on Molecular & Cellular Biophysics at the Faculty of Pharmacy, UL. LC Silva has an interdisciplinary background in biochemistry and cell biology, quantitative photophysics and molecular biophysics. Her research is multidisciplinary and bridges membrane biophysics and cell biology. She is interested in understanding the role of membrane biophysical properties in cell function and pathology. Her research is focused on membrane lipids and their interplay in biological membranes, aiming at evaluating their role in membrane organization and function, and to provide the molecular tools to develop improved therapeutics.
We invite the submission of abstracts for oral, flash or poster communications.
Oral, flash and poster communications will preferably be assigned to PhD, MSc and BSc Students, respectively. All scientific contributions are subject to a peer review process by the Scientific Committee, which reserves the right to change the communication format according to the scientific program.
If you sign up for a flash presentation, a poster must accompany the presentation on the day of the event
We also appreciate your complying with the instructions and deadlines. Your collaboration is important for the success of this event. Please be aware of the following steps.
Authors selected for oral, flash or poster communications will be notified on the 1st of July, 2023.
The best moments of this event. Thank you all!
