Bárbara B. Mendes

Investigador  Investigador Doutorado
Post-Doctoral Research
Bárbara B. Mendes has a PhD in Tissue Engineering, Regenerative Medicine & Stem Cells, from University of Minho (Portugal) in collaboration with the University of Pennsylvania (USA). She has been researching and engineering intrinsically bioactive systems as mimics of the native extracellular matrix that find multiple research and clinical applications in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering field. At CondeNano Lab, she is conducting research work in a multidisciplinary ground, from biomaterials, drug delivery to gene therapy.
