Autorenporträt
Gil Gonçalves graduated in 2003 in Chemistry and obtained a Masters degree in Materials Science in 2008 from the University of Aveiro (Portugal). In 2012 he received his Ph.D in Mechanical Engineering from the Center for Mechanical Technology and Automation (TEMA) University of Aveiro (UA), where he then pursued research on the development of graphene nanocomposites for biomedical and environmental applications until 2016. After obtaining a Marie Curie research fellowship, he started working at the Institute of Material Science of Barcelona-High Council of Spanish Research (ICMAB-CSIC) on the development of ultra-sensitive nanotherapeutic anticancer agents. Currently, he is also a member of the editorial board of Nature Publishing Groups Scientific Reports in the field of chemical physics. Mercedes Vila is currently the scientific director of Coating Technologies S.L. and guest assistant professor at the University of Aveiros Mechanical Engineering Department TEMA Research Unit. Her main research interests focus on the surface modification and functionalization of materials and materials behavior under different environments, e.g. biomaterials-cell interactions under physical stimuli, tribological responses and environmental remediation. Paula Marques is a principal investigator in the Nanoengineering Group of TEMA research unit at the University of Aveiro. Paulas research interests are related to the engineering and development of new, nanostructured materials that may offer solutions to societal problems. She started working with carbon nanostructures in 2007, and has been exploring the potential of graphene oxide for health and environmental applications since 2010, with the aim of engineering solutions that foster a cleaner, healthier, safer and more sustainable world.
