André Campaniço completed his Integrated Master's Degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences in 2016, in the Faculty of Pharmacy of the University of Lisbon (FFULisboa). André started to collaborate with the Department of Medicinal Chemistry of the Research Institute for Medicines iMed.ULisboa in the second year of his degree, participating in projects related with cancer, malaria and tuberculosis. In 2014, André was awarded with the 'Amadeu Dias' Research Grant for young researchers. In his final year, he spent three months at the School of Pharmacy from the University College of London, working with peptidomimetics with antibacterial potential. This latest work was the subject of his Master Thesis. In 2017, André went back to the Department of Medicinal Chemistry of FFULisboa and started an FCT-funded PhD on the development of new drug leads for tuberculosis. His PhD is a collaboration with the University of Cape Town, where he spent two months in 2020. Throughout his research experience, André developed skills in medicinal and organic chemistry, microbiology, analytical chemistry, solubility and metabolic studies, photochemistry, cell-based assays and animal science. Furthermore, he was a member of two academic associations (FFULisboa Students Association and iMed.ULisboa Postgraduate Students Commission) and three theatre groups, two of them led by him.
