Salomé Carneiro Neto de Nóbrega Luís enrolled on the Integrated Master of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Minho in 2017, finishing in 2022 with specialization in Biomaterials, Rehabilitation, and Biomechanics. 

During her master's degree, she had the opportunity of working with Professor José Carlos Cabello at Technical Proteins Nanobiotechnology, S.L., a spin-off of the University of Valladolid (Spain), to produce elastin-like recombinamers for wound healing applications. Salomé's dissertation was titled "Using elastin-like recombinamers as scaffolds for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine in the context of skin regeneration" and was completed at the University of Minho's Centre of Biological Engineering under the supervision of Prof. Artur Ribeiro.

She joined the Advanced Graphene Biomaterials Group in 2023, where she integrated the GO-Graft - a synthetic vascular graft for coronary artery bypass grafting project at i3S - Institute for Research and Innovation in Health, Porto, Portugal/ INEB - Institute of Biomedical Engineering. 

GO-Graft is the first synthetic anti-adhesive small-diameter vascular graft for coronary artery bypass grafting. It is a mechanically reinforced hydrogel using graphene oxide. Salomé is in charge of R&D at GO-Graft, which involves 3D manufacturing tasks for the final prototype as well as mechanical and biological characterization. She had the opportunity to present her research at three international and at the 10th i3S Annual Meeting, as well as to mentor two Master students of Bioengineering (Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto) in the IEEE internship "Blood as energy source to power cardiac electronic devices”.

Additionally, Salomé has two published articles and is especially interested in developing innovative business-aware off-the-shelf solutions for medical applications.
