Where Ideas Grow
Sofia Barros
PhD Student

I have a Master's degree in Biomedical Sciences, from the Universidade da Beira Interior. My master's dissertation was performed at Centro de Investigação em Ciências da Saúde (CICS), in the Biomaterials and Tissue engineering group and resulted in 3 publications: 2 original papers (DOI:10.1016/j.ijpharm.2018.09.016 and DOI: 10.1002/biot.201800268) and 1 review (DOI: 10.1002/bit.26845). After this, my jorney was and has being at the Instituto de Investigação e Inovação em Saúde (i3S). First, I got a master's scholarship and I helped in the construction of a 3D intestinal model, which resulted in a publication (DOI: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2021.11.048). Currently, I am a PhD student from the Instituto de Ciências Biomédicas Abel Salazar (ICBAS), from Universidade do Porto and I am developing my thesis in the Nanomedicines & Translational Drug Delivery group. During this time, I had the oportunity to participate in 2 reviews (DOI: 10.1016/j.addr.2021.113993 and DOI: 10.1016/j.addr.2020.09.008).
