📣 The e.Biofilm team had the pleasure of welcoming Prof. Matthew Fields, Director of the Center for Biofilm Engineering at Montana State University, at FEUP for the month of June. Besides meeting with PhD and Master’s students, Prof. Matthew was a speaker for 3 seminars held at the Department of Chemical Engineering:
📝 Microbial Communities and Microbial Interactions
📝 Biofilms and Beyond: MICRO- meets MACRO-
📝 Moving Towards Mechanistic Ecology for Microorganisms: Four Case Studies
Prof. Nuno Azevedo, Dr. Joana Vilas Boas, Dr. Andreia Azevedo and our PhD student Ana Barbosa attended the EUROBIOFILMS 2024 meeting from the 26th to the 29th of June in Copenhagen, Denmark.
💬 Ana presented a lecture on her work on “A Novel Multiplex mRNA PNA-FISH for Studying Gene Expression and Spatial Organization in Biofilms”.
📝 Dr. Andreia Azevedo presented a poster on the “Development of NAM-FISH for the Study of Biofilms Formed in an Advanced 3D Substrate”.
🎯 PhD student Vânia Pinheiro talks about her academic journey and background in Bioengineering and her professional achievements that lead her to pursue a PhD in Chemical and Biological Engineering at FEUP.
🧪 Vânia explains her research for e.Biofilm, consisting in the development and optimization of a multispecies chronic wound biofilm model, use of a transcriptomic approach, molecular techniques and confocal microscopy imaging.
