During this period, she worked on a collaborative project between the University of Coimbra and the Pharmacy Faculty of Santiago de Compostela, which culminated in the development of innovative biopolymer-based scaffolds combining silica-based nanomaterials with safe ionic liquids having potential features for a wide range of engineering and biotechnology application. After obtaining her master’s degree, she continued working as a researcher on different fields and learn new methods in three research institutes (CFisUC, CNC, Karolinska Institutet) both in Portugal and in Sweden.
Mariana has recently concluded her PhD studies in an Industrial Training Network – LongActNow which is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie funded program to study bottom-up approaches to produce the next generation of LAIs.
