Maria Lopes has a first Chemical Engineer Degree (5 years) and then a PhD in Material Science (Biomaterials). She has been a full professor at the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto since January of 2023. She is a coordinator of the section "Environment and Bioengineering" of the Mechanical Department, Director of the PhD Programme in Advanced Materials and Processing, co-coordinator of the National College of Materials Engineering in the Portuguese Engineering Council (Ordem dos Engenheiros, OE), Member of the Scientific Committees of the Master in Materials Engineering and of the Doctoral Programme in Biomedical Engineering at Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto, and a member of EXPAMED - Expert panel on medical devices and vitro diagnostic medical devices of European Commission. She participates/has participated in several project/grant evaluation panels, most of which are international (ex: Research Council of Norway; la Caixa" Banking Foundation, Spain; ERA-NET for materials research and innovation, EC; Innovation Radar Expert, EC; COST - European Cooperation in Science and Technology; Marie-Sklodowska-Curie Actions: Innovative Training Networks and Individual Fellowships). She has been doing her research activity in the materials field, mainly in the biomedical area (materials for the regeneration of soft and hard connective tissues): (i) Bone regeneration, mainly using P2O5 glass-reinforced calcium phosphates, substituted apatites prepared by precipitation chemical route, CaO-P2O5 glasses and glass-ceramics, as well as degradable polymeric scaffolds, ii) nerve regeneration field, through the development of new biodegradable polymeric scaffolds, iii) cardiovascular regeneration filed, more specifically the development of biomaterials to be used as carotid grafts, iv) dental materials - endodontic sealers and restorative cement, and v) tendons/ ligaments regeneration. The methodology followed in her research has been talking to enterprises/industries/medical doctors looking for problems that need to be solved and bringing innovative solutions that can be a market-driving force in the medical device field. Therefore, she is aware of the medical device guidelines, ISO standards and GMP principles. She has an h-index of 38 (Scopus; without auto citations). She has more than 130 scientific articles in international journals and 9 book chapters. She has participated in 19 projects (2 ongoing) financed by Portuguese Science Foundation (Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, I.P.) and Portuguese Innovation Agency (Agência Nacional de Inovação, S.A.). She has 2 patents resulting from longstanding collaborations with industry in the framework of research projects and has 2 patents pending (PCT).
