Manuela. E. Gomes is Full Professor of BioEngineering at the Institute for Medical and Biomedical Sciences (ICBAS) of the University of Porto and PI of the Research Group in Disease Modelling and Regenerative Medicine of the Unit for Multidisciplinary Research in Biomedicine (UMIB) of ICBAS. Previously she was Associate Professor with Habilitation (tenure) and she was the first President of the Research Institute for Biomaterials, Biodegradable and Biomimetics (I3Bs) of the University of Minho (2018-2022). She was member of the Board of Directors of the Associated Laboratory ICVS/3B’s. She was a founder researcher of 3B’s Research Group- Biomaterials, Biodegradables, Biomimetics in the University of Minho. where she implemented the Quality Management System in 3B’s Research Group ( ISO 9001:2015 Certified). She collaborated since 2004 in lecturing several courses of the Integrated Master in Biomedical Engineering, namely Biomaterials, Tissue Engineering and Stem Cells and Biocompatibility Laboratories, being responsible for these courses since 2013. Additionally, she is member of the Board of Directors of the Doctoral Program in Tissue Engineering, Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cells; she was responsible for various courses of this Program. She was also co-coordinator of the Biomaterials and Nanobiotechnology module of the Doctoral Program in Bioengineering of MIT-Portugal. Manuela has been part of numerous European and national/regional projects as PI/member, with a focus on her involvement on preparing the proposal, negotiating the contract and implementing the European Network of Excellence EXPERTISSUES, which originated the European Institute of Excellence in Tissue Engineering (EXPERTISSUES EEIG), leaded by 3B’s. Her research has always been centred in Tissue Engineering, particularly in applications for bone, cartilage and periodontal defects, including the development of scaffolds, optimization of stem cell sources e culture techniques for their differentiation (bioreactors). In recent years, she has been consolidating a research line focused on Tissue Engineering for tendon and ligament application, as well as in using magnetic materials/stimuli to promote tissue regeneration. Manuela is also interested in Regenerative Veterinary Medicine, field in which she helped founding the only Portuguese company with regenerative therapies available for application in a veterinary clinical setting – VETHERAPY – together with two PhD alumni. Manuela edited 3 books, 1 encyclopaedia, and is author of 45 book chapters, 250 full papers in journals with international peer-review, 9 patents and over 400 communications in international conferences. Her work has been cited more than 10.000x, with an h-index of 55 (source: web of Science). She has given 60 invited lectures in international conferences and advanced courses. In 2013, she was awarded with the TERMIS-EU Young Investigator Award in recognition of her scientific work in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine. In 2013 she received the Career Development Award and in 2016 Career Consolidation Award, awarded by FCT. In 2017 she was awarded with a Consolidator Grant from the European Research Council (ERC), followed by a Proof of Concept Project in 2022 from the ERC. She coordinated the EC Twinning Project Achilles and she is presently the Coordinator of the COST Action TENET. She is the Ambassador in Portugal for the European Orthopaedic Research Society (EORS) and she organized the EORS 2023 Conference in Porto, Portugal. In 2021 she was elected member of the TERMIS Fellow’s Class and elected as Chair of the European Chapter of the Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine International Society (TERMIS- EU) for the term from 2025 –2027.
