Mano DESCRIPTION:This event is CANCELLED due to airports being on strike.\nProf. Mano's visit has been re-scheduled for 31st October 2024\n \;\n\n\n\n Spring 2024 program\n\nCANCELLED\nProf. João F. Mano\, University of Avei ro\, Portugal\nCompartmentalizing cells in 3D microenvironments to enginee r human tissues\nHost: Chunlin Xu (chunlin.xu@abo.fi)\n\nCoffee and sandwi ch at 11:45\, first come first served!\n\n \;\n\nSix PhD researchers a nd early-career postdocs are welcome to have a lunch in restaurant Mauno a nd discuss with Prof. Mano after the seminar. This is a great possibility to learn hosting skills in friendly environment and create connections for future. Everyone is welcome to join\, BioCity Turku will offer the lunch. \n\nIf you got interested\, please send an email to biocityturku@bioscienc e.fi\n\n \;\n\nJoão F. Mano is a vice-director at CICECO – Aveiro I nstitute of Materials\, where he is directing the COMPASS Research Group\, founded in April 2016. His research focuses on the application of advance d biomaterials and cells to advance multidisciplinary concepts in the fiel d of regenerative and personalized medicine. Specifically\, he utilizes bi omimetic and nano/micro-technology approaches to develop polymer-based bio materials and surfaces for the creation of biomedical devices with enhance d structural and multi-functional properties. He also engineers microenvir onments to regulate cell behavior and organization\, with the goal of clin ically applying these technologies in advanced therapies and drug screenin g\, or in the bioengineering of disease models.\n\n \;\n\nSelected pub lications\n\nR.C.
