Ricardo Manuel de Seixas Boavida Ferreira. Research Group: Plants for Health and Nutrition CV synopsis: Professional position: Full Professor at the Instituto Superior de Agronomia from the University of Lisbon Personal: born 1957, married, 6 children. Motto: basic research to solve everyday problems. Research interests: with a very wide range of collaborations, strong multidisciplinary research allowing to take research from the lab bench to plate, clinic or farm. Research areas: transcript-, proteo- and metabolomics in cell-cell and cell-molecule interactions, involved in plant- and human-pathogen interactions and human health and nutrition. Biological materials: from bacteria to fungi, plants to man, with a special focus on fungal pathogens. Collaborations: national and international, ranging from plant systematics, chemistry and electronics, to phytopathology, agriculture, human nutrition and medicine. Main research topics: bioactive proteins and secondary metabolites with antifungal, bactericide, anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities; development of control strategies for extremely important plant diseases for which no cure or treatment exist (e.g. esca of grapevine, Phytophthora of cork oak and chest nut trees. Publications and Patents: over 120 published scientific articles (JCR), inventor in many international patents, either granted (over 40 international patents) or under examination (8 patent families). Supervision experience: supervision of many final-year undergraduates (>50), Master of Science (>30) and Ph.D. students (17), as well as other post-graduates (>50) and post-doctorates (>15), from both Portugal and abroad (Italy, Netherlands, France, Egypt, India, China, Russia, Bosnia, Spain, Brazil, Hungary, Germany, Angola). Large experience on coordination of research projects and intellectual property issues. Main Research Area: Biochemistry & Molecular Biology Major areas of research, each of which includes both basic and applied lines of research: - Strategies to improve human nutrition, and human and plant disease • Search for natural peptides, proteins and secondary metabolites exhibiting bioactivity at the level of inflammation, cancer and nutrition - Animal models (weaned piglets and man). • Assessment of the effect of digestion on the bioavailability of ingested, natural bioactive peptides, proteins and secondary metabolites – Animal models (rats) and human intervention studies. • Transcriptomic, proteomic, glycomic & metabolomic analyses of the interaction host/pathogenic fungi; major fungi under study: the human pathogens Aspergillus fumigatus and Alternaria alternata, and the fungi responsible for the esca disease of grapevine; • Lectins, exoglycome and cancer; • Action mechanisms of blad antifungal polypeptide; • Search & development of novel and non-toxic fungicides, active against human, animal and plant pathogens; special focus on multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria and the following plant pathogens: the esca causing fungi in grapevine, Phytophthora cinamommi in cork oak, and Xylella fastidiosa in olive tree and grapevine • Stereochemical studies on dirigent protein function; • Differential approaches for the recombinant expression of non-natural polypeptides by bacterial, yeast and plant cells to develop methods for human and plant disease control; • Development of specific bioelectronic methodologies capable of detecting and treating grapevine plants infected with esca and other recalcitrant wood disease-causing fungi. - The wine proteins • Elucidation of the chemical mechanism(s) responsible for wine protein haze formation; • Structural identification of the X factor(s).
