Luis Miguel Mota Ferreira. He is Auxiliary Researcher (career) at Universidade de Lisboa, Instituto Superior Técnico. L.M. Ferreira is graduated in Technological Chemistry and obtained is PhD (Univ. de Lisboa) with a thesis on the development of polyethylene based materials by grafting copolymerization induced by gamma radiation and their application in biomaterials area (synthesis, physico-chemical characterization and biocompatibility studies). He is a research materials-chemist working at the C2TN Research Unit of IST, UL, and his work has been mainly devoted on the preparation, modification and functionalization of macromolecular materials (polymers and hybrid materials) by ionizing radiation techniques, mainly for biomedical and environmental applications, catalytic processes and conservation/preservation of cultural heritage artefacts. He has a large experience in gamma irradiation techniques and processes for sensitive materials and products. For almost 6 years, he was the Technical Director of the unique Portuguese semi-industrial cobalt-60 irradiation facility located at CTN/IST (UTR - Unidade de Tecnologias de Radiação). He is the scientific supervisor of the Laboratory for Macromolecular Materials and respective area of research at C2TN/IST, UL, being one of the two national experts, recognized by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), in the processing of advanced macromolecular materials (preparation and functionalization) through ionizing radiation techniques. Attended several scientific meetings, with more than 100 communications (oral and poster), of which more than 30 were invited talks. Author and co-author of more than 50 publications in Referred Journals and Proceedings. Participated as team leader or member in 17 research projects. Oriented more than 20 students, including graduation, PhD, MSc and ERASMUS students and Pos-doc researchers. Also participated in scientific dissemination actions and as supervisor in Programa Ciência Viva internships and lectures. He maintains regular activity as reviewer for several journals of international circulation (e.g. Nuclear Instruments & Methods - B, Radiation Physics and Chemistry, Polymer Science, Nukleonika, etc), and was guest editor of the Journal Membranes for the special issue "Biocompatible Membranes. He was also the Coordinator of the Thematic Strand “Advanced Materiais” in C2TN and Member of the Coordinating Committee of the C2TN Scientific Council between 2022 and 2023. L.M. Ferreira has an established multidisciplinary network of well-known and respected national and international collaborators as so a close collaboration with national Universities and the IAEA (projects and as expert on radiation processing of advanced materials, in Technical Meetings, Workshops and Training Courses).
