Pedro S. Babo is co-founder and the scientific director of LANDRATECH, LDA. He graduated in Microbial and Genetics Biology in 2007 and concluded his Master in Molecular and Genetics Biology in 2008 by Faculty of Sciences of University of Lisbon on the study of the genetic variability and agronomic characteristics of a temperate climate rice germplasm. In 2010, he was awarded with a FCT PhD scholarship with the project "Tissue engineering strategies for periodontal tissue regeneration based on platelet lysate" developed in collaboration with the 3B's Research Group and the Department of Biomaterials, Radboud Univ. Nijmegen, The Netherlands. As a post-doc researcher, he established a unique research line in endodontic regenerative therapies, which inspired the project "InjecTE - Injectable biomaterials for dental tissue engineering", a consortium between the institute 3B’s, the Univ. Oslo (Norway), and the Univ. Hospital Regensburg (Germany) awarded with 1.3 M€ by the Norwegian Research Foundation. He has a h-index of 16, 779 citations, 1 registered patent, and published 28 articles (8 as first author) and 3 book chapters. From 2017 until 2021 he was Invited Professor at Univ. Minho. He was also invited to give lectures in the Doctoral Program in Bioengineering (MIT Portugal Program) and at the Post-graduation program in Endodontics, in the Univ. of Cuenca, Ecuador. Currently he is focused on the development of technological solutions for the valorization of acorn from European endemic forests aligned with the circular bio-economy principles. In 2018 he was co-promotor of the project "Acorn Warehouse" for the valorization of acorns from European endemic forest. The project was finalist in the EIT-Food and MassChallenge accelerator programs in 2020 and received a total investment of 120 k€ (Startup voucher) from the Institute for the Support of Small and Medium-size Enterprises (IAPMEI) and INNOV-ID (Portugal Ventures). The investment supported de incorporation LANDRATECH, LDA. He is PI of two ongoing projects (LandFood and WebLand) addressing the creation of a value chain for the valorization of acorn from montado/dehesa for agri-food industry, financed by la “Caixa” Foundation and the PRIMA Med project MEDACORNET aiming to rescue acorn as a novel Mediterranean food. He has established several contacts/partnerships with the academia, e.g. CIMO - IPB; VALORIZA - IPP, ETH Zurich; Univ. Bari (Italy), Univ. and industry, e.g., Cerealis, Nestlé and Dacsa Atlantic. He is founding member of the "Confraria Ibérica da Bolota".
