Curriculum Vitae

Dylan Ferreira

Dylan Ferreira (DF) is a fourth year PhD student in Biomedical Sciences (ICBAS) at the Portuguese Institute of Oncology of Porto in collaboration with the CIMA Institute (Pamplona, Spain). DF has a Bachelor’s degree in Pathological, Cytological, and Thanatological Anatomy from the School of Health Sciences of Porto (2016) and a Master degree in Medicine and Molecular Oncology from the Faculty of Medicine, University of Porto (2019). Since 2016, DF has been developing his core of research around gastric cancer and different treatment modalities, exploiting gastric cancer glycobiology as a mean to specifically target tumour cells. Concomitantly, has been collaborating in other areas of scientific knowledge such as antibody characterisation, development and clinical implementation of microfluidic devices and biosensors, exosome analysis, circulating tumour cell analysis, vaccine development, among other areas. DF collaborates with at least 8 groups from i3s (University of Porto), Center for Neuroscience and Cell Biology (University of Coimbra), International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (Braga), Faculty of Sports (FADEUP; University of Porto) and NOVA School of Science and Technology (NOVA University of Lisbon), mostly in the scope of post-translational modifications (glycosylation), oncology or biotechnology. Additionally, DF was a visiting researcher at the Institute of Research and Innovation in Health (i3s) of the University of Porto in the Tumour and Microenvironment Interactions Group for more than 5 years. As result, DF has published 2 authored articles and more than 20 articles in international indexed specialized journals, in the fields of oncology, glycobiology, and biotechnology. He has a h-index of 13, an average impact factor of 7, with more than 351 citations in published articles. DF was integrant of one international project financed by the European EuroNanoMed funding platform (ENMed/0005/2015; 2017-2019) and nowadays he integrates five financed pre-clinical and clinical projects [financed by FCT (Foundation for Science and Technology), Swedish pharmaceutical industry and an Australian Biosensors company] at IPO Porto. Since 2022, DF is the PhD student representative on the IPO Porto Research Center Coordinating Committee. In 2020, DF was awarded with a 1-year research grant from National Portuguese League Against Cancer and, in the same year, DF was awarded with a 4-years PhD grant from FCT. Between 2017 and 2024, he was invited to give lectures and workshops at the School of Health at Polytechnic Institute of Bragança. More recently, DF integrated the project “Proficient Pathology Lab. Program - PALOP PPLP 1.0” where he had the opportunity to work in loco in several African Countries of Portuguese Official Language (PALOP) to improve the diagnosis of breast cancer on African Countries. Moreover, currently, he is an Invited Assistant Professor at the School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences and Faculty of Health Sciences of the University Fernando Pessoa.
