No passado dia 21 de fevereiro, a Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia da Universidade NOVA de Lisboa recebeu a Grand Final do FCT Entrepreneurship 2025, onde equipas de estudantes apresentaram soluções inovadoras para desafios do mundo real.
"My research focuses on natural polymers, mainly cellulose, and their use in producing biocompatible, renewable liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs). LCEs are unique, responsive materials that reversibly change shape, colour, and adhesive or damping properties when triggered by heat, light, humidity, or strain. LCEs from natural polymers offer innovative, sustainable solutions for soft robotics, biomedical devices, and engineering applications."
Professor Hugo Águas and Professor João Pedro Veiga, both researchers at CENIMAT|i3N, have officially taken on leadership roles at NOVA FCT.
Pedro Barquinha, researcher at CENIMAT|i3N, nominated to the National Council for Science, Technology and Innovation
Maria Helena Godinho, investigadora do CENIMAT e professora do Departamento de Ciência dos Materiais da NOVA FCT, recebeu a Bolsa “ERC Synergy Grant” do Conselho Europeu de Investigação (European Research Council), conjuntamente com outros dois investigadores das Universidades de Luxemburgo e de Cambridge.
