Renata Matos graduated in Chemistry, in 2017, at Faculty of Sciences of the University of Porto (FCUP). In 2019, she received her master's degree in Chemistry from the same institution. She is currently a PhD student in Sustainable Chemistry, working on the development of biochar-based catalysts for energy conversion applications (oxygen electroreduction and electrochemical oxygen/hydrogen evolution reactions). During 2016-2018, she participated in three extracurricular internships at LAQV/REQUIMTE. In 2020, she worked at LAQV/REQUIMTE as researcher, developing functional textiles for electromagnetic radiation shielding. Currently, she is working at Vasco da Gama Colab, as junior researcher. Her research interests have been focused on the chemistry of materials, including carbon nanomaterials, biochar-based materials, metal oxides and functionalization of (nano)materials, and electrocatalysis. Lately, her interest is mainly focused on electrocatalysis and electrochemical energy conversion/storage devices. She collaborated on two research projects, namely FOTOCATGRAF (ref. UTAP-ICDT/CTMNAN/0025/2014) and REWATER (ref. WaterJPI/0007/2016), and participated on three research projects: RFPROTEX (ref. POCI-01-0247-FEDER-039833), PhotoBioTrans (ref. EXPL/CTM-CTM/0790/2021) and Shell4BioA (EXPL/BII-BIO/0436/2021). During her academic career, she published 11 papers in international peer-reviewed journals and 1 book chapter, organized two scientific dissemination events and participated in 13 scientific events , having presented her work in oral communications on 5 of these events.
