José Alexandre Ferreira graduated in Chemistry by the University of Aveiro in 2002 and completed an MSc in Food Chemistry in 2004, with specialization in glycochemistry. In 2010 he obtained a PhD degree from the same university in collaboration with the University of Guelph in Ontario in Canada. During his PhD he identified several antigenic glycans from gastric pathogen H. pylori, the main etiologic agent of gastric cancer. Some antigens are currently explored as innovative serological tools based on glycoarrays. He then joined the Mass Spectrometry Center of UA as a postdoctoral researcher to address key roles played by protein glycosylation in cancer combining glycomics and glycoproteomics. In the meantime, he was also the founder of GlyConStruct, a spin-off company aimed to design biotechnological solutions for producing glycopeptides of clinical interest. In 2013, he assumed the coordination of a research team at Portuguese Institute of Oncology of Porto (IPO-Porto), the largest oncology center in Portugal. In 2016, he also became a member the Institute of Research and Innovation in Health (i3S) at the University of Porto, and an invited researcher at the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory, with the objective of fostering the translation of glycan-based technologies into clinical applications. Since then, he has gathered over €700K for human resources in competitive international calls, established a solid platform for graduate training in oncoglycobiology (6 PhD, 20 MSc completed). He currently coordinates several graduate students (6 PhD) and mentors 2 postdoctoral researchers. In 2018 he was promoted to assistant research on a highly competitive international call funded by the Portuguese Science Funding Agency, being ranked top 3% amongst more than 1400 applicants. This success was repeated in 2022, this time in the principal investigator category (only on position awarded). He is currently the CEO and co-founder of GlycoMatters, a biotech startup devoted to the discovery of glyconeoantigens and designing innovative solutions for precision oncology. He often lectures in Master and international courses. He maintains active collaborations with academia and pharmaceutical industry. Since 2016, he has been involved in 5 funded projects in glycosciences, including GlycoCan, a Marie Curie European Training Network composed of 15 leading European partners in glycobiology. In 2016, he became an external scientific evaluator for the European commission (FET-open, ERC Advanced Grants, Marie Currie fellowships) and other relevant international institutions in the UK, France, Spain, The Netherlands and Ireland (DTIF). He was invited as speaker in more than 20 scientific meetings, including the 2017 Human Proteome Organization World Congress, to discuss his achievements in glycoproteomics. He holds 3 patents, 2 provisional patents and 61 publications (>3000 citations; H-index: 26) in relevant peer-reviewed journals, including Molecular Oncology, British Journal of Cancer, Cancer Letters, Oncotarget, Nature Cell Biology, PNAS and Theranostics. His main research topics are the following: i.Understand the molecular mechanisms controlling protein glycosylation alterations relevant to carcinogenesis and cancer progression; ii. Glycoproteogenomics towards novel biomarkers for precision oncology; iii. Development of glycan-based sensors for cancer applications; iv. Development of glycan-based cancer therapies (immunotherapy, nanotherapy) As part of an Oncology Center of Excellence, his research presents a strong translational and market-oriented character, aiming for glycan-based innovations in oncology.
