2014 - 2019 Lab Open Days - As researcher of PEL /IPFN I am invited every year to give an on-site lecture (in the Lab), showing and explaining several experiments mainly related with "Microwave plasmas applied to carbon nanostructures synthesis" topic. These events are major opportunities for PhD and MSc students, alumni and academic community in general to be in contact with the work that is being developed in the Laboratories of the IST Campus. Reasearchers and students are invited to interact and discuss the impact and the relevance of their work in society. Laboratory Open Days

2016 - 2017 Lab Days -As member of the Research team of GREMI Laboratory, I was invited to give a workshop. In this workshop I showed and explained several experiments mainly related with plasma polymerization using capacitively coupled plasmas and also material charaterization techniques used in the clean room, such as SEM, contact angle, etc (hands-on experience). This event promotes the interaction between researchers, Bachelor, MSc and PhD students, opening new avenues for future collaborations, designing future projects, and exploring career opportunities.
