Frontiers of Science
February 1st at 12:00
On-site event
Presidentti auditorium, BioCity
Prof. João F. Mano, University of Aveiro, Portugal
Compartmentalizing cells in 3D microenvironments to engineer human tissues
Host: Chunlin Xu (chunlin.xu@abo.fi)
Coffee and sandwich at 11:45, first come first served!
Six PhD researchers and early-career postdocs are welcome to have a lunch in restaurant Mauno and discuss with Prof. Mano after the seminar. This is a great possibility to learn hosting skills in friendly environment and create connections for future. Everyone is welcome to join, BioCity Turku will offer the lunch.
If you got interested, please send an email to biocityturku@bioscience.fi
João F. Mano is a vice-director at CICECO – Aveiro Institute of Materials, he is directing the COMPASS Research Group, founded in April 2016. His research focuses on the application of advanced biomaterials and cells to advance multidisciplinary concepts in the field of regenerative and personalized medicine. Specifically, he utilizes biomimetic and nano/micro-technology approaches to develop polymer-based biomaterials and surfaces for the creation of biomedical devices with enhanced structural and multi-functional properties. He also engineers microenvironments to regulate cell behavior and organization, with the goal of clinically applying these technologies in advanced therapies and drug screening, or in the bioengineering of disease models.
