Currently, Viviana Ribeiro is a Researcher at Centro de Biotecnologia e Química Fina (CBQF) performing research centred in the valorization of agro-food by-products and green biotechnology-based solutions for biomedical applications in the field of skin care. The analysis of her research shows that her background follows 3 main topics: i) Natural-based biomaterials development and valorization through the exploitation of their biological potential; ii) Materials functionalization and characterization in the context of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications; iii) Cell culture design for in vitro grafts¿ validation and assessment of biocompatibility properties. Her scientific innovation reflects in 4 granted patents (WO2018/215997 A1; WO 2018/025186 A1;WO 2021/038507 A1; WO 2022/029739 A1), 1 PPP (P1519.6 PP), author of 26 publications in scientific Journals in the field (>Q1, 7 invited publications), 7 book chapters and 48 publications in international/national conferences (22 oral and 30 poster presentations). She also participated in 24 international/national scientific meetings in the field. Being corresponding author of 10 articles in important scientific Journals (>Q1), she collaborated with >60 authors and co-organized several editions of the ¿AnnualScientific Meeting Term Stem". With an h-index of 15, her proficiency resulted so far in more than 1100 citations(Source: Google Scholar) by more than 680 citing articles (Source: ISI WoK). She is reviewer for more than 30 Internatinal Journals in the field (>Q1) and some with high IF (e.g. ACS Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering). She was Guest Editor of two Special Issues from Materials (https://www.mdpi.com/si/37667) and Pharmaceutics(https://www.mdpi.com/si/65652), and is currently co-Editor of the hot Research Topic "Sustainable TissueEngineering and Regenerative Medicine" at Frontiers in Materials. Her editorial contributions also include be Topical Advisory Panel Member of Pharmaceutics and Review Editor in Frontiers in Biomaterials Science(special section Bio-interactions and Biocompatibility). Troughout her career she has been involved in the mentoring of works of 11 ungraduated, MSc and PhD students. Currently, she supervises 1 MSc student and is co-supervisor of a MSc and PhD students with research activities in the scope of her developed research line. Since October 2022 she is Invited assistant professor at the College of Biotechnology, Portuguese Catholic University of Porto (ESB-UCP). Recently she was awarded with the Technological Innovation, Mobility and Industry Award from Amélia de Mello Foundation in collaboration with COTEC Portugal (3rd Edition), with the project "ReSkin - Reuse of an acellular rabbit dermal matrix as a bio-substitute of human Skin", and she was awarded with a Junior Research contract from FCT in the scope of Individual Call to Scientific Employment Stimulus - 6th Edition, with the theme "FENIX- FEaturing the valorizatioN of an agro-food by-product: rabbit skin as a matrIX for treating burn wounds". Her research interests and ambitions are focused on sustainable development and by-products valorization applied in biomedicine.
