Célia Maria Reis Henriques

Graduated in Physics in 1989 by the Universidade de Coimbra and PhD in Surface Physics in 2003 by Universidade Nova de Lisboa. Associated Professor in the Physics Department of the Nova School of Science and Technology - Nova University of Lisbon. Coordinates the master’s degree in biomedical engineering. For some years now, has been involved in or leading projects on tissue engineering (e.g., https://sites.fct.unl.pt/great/pages/neurites, https://sites.fct.unl.pt/great/pages/iskin2).

 

Main research interests: synthesis, processing and characterisation of biomaterials for tissue engineering, evaluation of cell response to materials, neuronal regeneration, skin regeneration, antimicrobials for skin substitutes, nanobiomaterials.
