Simão Pandeirada is a PhD student at the University of Aveiro. In 2017, Simão concluded flute and composition studies at the Music Conservatoire of Aveiro. In October of the same year, upon enrolling at the University of Aveiro, he was awarded the "Melhor caloiro /Best Freshman" scholarship distinction, given to students who achieved an entry score of 17.5/20 or higher. He completed his bachelors (July 2020) and masters (December 2022) degrees in biochemistry at the University of Aveiro with final classifications of 17/20 and 19/20, respectively. During his undergraduate studies, he was part of the organizing team for the XII National Biochemistry Meeting at the University of Aveiro in April 2019. Moreover, during his masters degree, he was awarded with an international STSM (April 2022) to have an internship at Université Côte d'Azur, France, and received a research fellowship to work on the design of new bio-based polymers and their chemical recycling process (March-December 2022). Since he started his formation at the University of Aveiro, Simão has consistently participated in workshops and conferences, and presented two poster and one oral communications in International Scientific events. In 2022 he has strengthened his internationalisation degree by joining the COST Action FUR4Sustain (CA18220) about renewable-based polymers and by participating in several events in the framework COST programme (e.g., training schools and conferences). He has also been engaged in the organization of COST events, such as the Happy Hour webinar series.

Institution / Organization
2023/02/08 - 2033/02/10 The training school aimed to span the arc from Green Chemistry actions to potential dynamics and consequences in global systems, and thus enable trainees to view and reflect upon actions on different levels and in different contexts of sustainability. Were invited researchers working on biorefinery and bioeconomy topics, both from chemistry/materials science backgrounds interested in sustainability (i.e., environmental, social, and economic dimensions) and innovation.

2023/03/22 - 2023/03/24 «1st Joint Twinning Soft Transferable Skills Workshop» teve como objetivo clarificar alguns aspetos sobre a comunicação na ciência e sobre os vários projetos europeus a que jovens investigadores se podem candidatar. Nestes vários workshops foram discutidos essencialmente esses temas e os oradores focaram-se em dar casos práticos e dicas que qualquer investigador pode e deve usar quando comunica ciência tanto para a candidatura a um projeto como para público dito «comum».
