Pedro Costa obtained undergraduate (2007) and MSc (2009) degrees in Physics and a Ph.D. in Materials Engineering in 2013 at the University of Minho. Currently, he has published 63 papers, most of them in high-ranked journals (IF>7 and a larger majority of them in Q1) (in the last 5 years he has 40 published papers, 7 as first, 25 as submitting, and 2 as the last author), h-index of 26, 1837 citations, 11 invited talks and 5 posters in international events. He was invited to Editor (and first author) of a book entitled "Advanced Lightweight Multifunctional Materials" in Elsevier (2021); 1 book chapter; and Guest for Editor in three Special Issues, from Materials of MDPI. In 2020 he also was invited to evaluate an international project of Fondecyt program, from Chile. Moreover, he has two patents on piezoresistive ink formulations with the number WO2017114978A1 (2017), and "Electrode for a lithium-ion battery and process for its preparation" in 2021, both transferred to the industry related to Industry 4.0 and IoT and was achieved working directly with companies (Dynasol Group and Korta). His CV demonstrates capabilities to develop excellent research in multifunctional polymer materials or printing applications and competence in the interfaces with the industry. He has experience working with several processing methods (from laboratorial to industrial scales) and printing processes (2Dimensional and 3D), as demonstrated in his CV. He has participated in 10 financed projects (2 with industry), 4 of them in the last 5 years. The international experience started during his PhD research where he collaborated with international research centers with stays (about 3 months each) in Spain (Instituto de Carboquímica: ICB/CSIC-Zaragoza and LabPlast-University of Coruna) and Dpt. of Chemistry of the University of Milan. He also received foreign students at the University of Minho. Expertise in manipulation in carbonaceous (ICB) or conductive polymers (Milan) and industrial processing (LabPlast) have been extremely relevant in the development of my scientific carrier. His novel work with polymer-based composites for large strain sensors was pioneering in the world and the leader in the area in Portugal. Thus, searching for "large strain sensor" (Scopus) he is the most cited author (in the top 30 worldwide). In the last 5 years, he collaborated with the previously mentioned centers and with other international research centers: BCMaterials (with a stay of 2 months and a research contract for 3 months before starting the current grant from FCT), technological center Gaiker, Electronics, and Computing Department from University of Mondragon, collaborations that resulted in some joint publications and 1 submitted patent. Between 2017-2018 he received 3 Ph. students (Dpt. of Automobile Engineering, Beihang University for 1 year) and (Gaiker Company/University of the Basque Country and University Mondragon received 2 students for 2 months each) working with functional polymer-based materials. He actively participates in the EuroEAP Society (between 2012 to 2016) in its networking activities in the field of Electromechanically Active Polymer artificial muscles for actuation, sensing and energy harvesting. The funding achievements materialized in 2 financed projects (he led the writing and investigation of several tasks in both projects) ¿Advanced Green Printed Batteries for Portable Devices¿- POCI-01-0145-FEDER-028157 from FCT and ¿GNESIS- Graphenest's New Engineered System and its Implementation Solutions¿ with a final prototype and 2 published papers (in collaboration with Graphenest and Displax companies). Besides, as supervisor, he writes the applications of 3 Ph. grant students (in a total of 12 years of grants) in addition to his scientific career, with Ph. and Pos-Doc grants (of 10 years). The mentoring experience is demonstrated by the supervision

2018/10/01 - 2022/09/28 Energy harvesting devices use as harvesting materials single crystals, ceramics, polymers and nanocomposites. Despite efforts in the development of novel materials, the most widely used materials in applications remain ceramics as piezoelectric materials, since they still present the higher output performances in the range up to mW of generated power. However, ferroelectric polymers are manufactured for novel applications as systems for scavenging the surrounding ambient energy for low-power devices.
