Margarida's experience and interests

Margarida Martins currently works at the CICECO - Aveiro Institute of Materials, University of Aveiro. Margarida does research in Biotechnology, Chemical Engineering and Chemical Biology.  Her experience is on processes of extraction, purification, and characterization of biomolecules for specific applications, being my main goal to recover high value molecules from low cost biomass such as by-products from industry, macro- and microalgae, and microorganisms, optimizing these processes to achieve higher performance, in more cost effective and sustainable processes. She was involved in the project 'Optimization and Scale-up of Novel Ionic-Liquid-based Purification Processes for Recombinant Green Fluorescent Protein produced by Escherichia coli' as research fellow. Now she is doing a PhD in Chemical Engineering in 'Marine biorefinery: valorisation of algae into advanced products'.
