Sílvia Rebocho finished her PhD degree at FCT-UNL in 2015 on Sustainable Chemistry. During her PhD project, entitled ¿Biotransformation/separation routes to obtain pure enantiomers", she worked on the implementation of a new methodology for the separation of enantiomers of secondary alcohols, combining two sustainable technologies ¿ enzymes and supercritical technology using green/natural solvents. After that, she worked as a postdoctoral researcher in a project that involved the production of molecular imprinted polymers, using green technology to explore pharma and biomedical applications. During the last years, she also acquired experience in mentoring and training several students. She is the author and co-author of scientific papers involving enzymatic biocatalysis, supercritical fluid technology, vapor-liquid equilibrium, molecular imprinting techniques and extraction using natural deep eutectic systems. In the projects where she was involved, she always use alternative solvents and biocatalysis. Green Chemistry was always her focus of interest in research. Now, she is working with a new type of solvents, "deep eutectic systems (DES)" for the extraction of several bioactive compounds from plants. DES can be used in several areas such as biocatalysis, capture of carbon dioxide, electrochemistry or biomedical applications, among others. The use of these compounds is deeply involved in the development of pharmaceutical, cosmetic and food applications.
