Mano DESCRIPTION:October 31st at 12:00\nOn-site event\nin Presidentti auditorium \, BioCity\nAutumn 2024 program\n\nProf. João F. Mano\, University of Ave iro\, Portugal\nCompartmentalizing cells in 3D microenvironments to engine er human tissues\nHost: Chunlin Xu (chunlin.xu@abo.fi)\n\nCoffee and sandw ich at 11:45\, first come first served!\n\n \;\n\nSix PhD researchers and early-career postdocs are welcome to have a lunch and discuss with Pro f. Mano after the seminar. This is a great possibility to learn hosting sk ills in friendly environment and create connections for future. Everyone i s welcome to join\, BioCity Turku will offer the lunch.\n\nIf you got inte rested\, please send an email to biocityturku@bioscience.fi\n\n \;\n\n João F. Mano is a vice-director at CICECO – Aveiro Institute of Materia ls\, where he is directing the COMPASS Research Group\, founded in April 2 016. His research focuses on the application of advanced biomaterials and cells to advance multidisciplinary concepts in the field of regenerative a nd personalized medicine. Specifically\, he utilizes biomimetic and nano/m icro-technology approaches to develop polymer-based biomaterials and surfa ces for the creation of biomedical devices with enhanced structural and mu lti-functional properties. He also engineers microenvironments to regulate cell behavior and organization\, with the goal of clinically applying the se technologies in advanced therapies and drug screening\, or in the bioen gineering of disease models.\n\n \;\n\nSelected publications\n\nR.C.
