João Paulo Heitor Godinho Canejo

João P. Canejo received his Ph.D. degree in materials science and engineering – concerning the formation of helical structures in cellulosic liquid crystal systems - in 2005, from the New University of Lisbon (NOVA), at Faculty of Sciences and Technology (FCT). He is currently a researcher in the Center of Materials Science CENIMAT/I3N (Institute for Nanostructures, Nanomodeling and Nanofabrication) working in the Material Science Department (DCM). He is working in the Soft and Biofunctional Materials Group (SBMG).

 

Main scientific interests: Cellulosic liquid crystalline phases, production of fibers and non-woven membranes using the electrospinning technique, production of color using cholesteric cellulosic systems and collection of oil microdroplets from water.
