Miguel Mano graduated in Biochemistry from the University of Coimbra, Portugal, in 2001, and obtained his PhD degree in Biochemistry from the University of Coimbra, Portugal, in 2006. After the PhD, M. Mano worked as a Post-Doctoral fellow (2006-2008) at the Molecular Medicine laboratory and as Scientific Manager of the High-Throughput Screening Facility (2008-2014) at the International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (ICGEB, Trieste, Italy). In 2014, Miguel Mano established an independent laboratory at the Centre for Neuroscience and Cell Biology (CNC, Coimbra, Portugal), under the FCT Investigator Programme from the Portuguese Science Foundation (FCT, Portugal). Since 2021, M. Mano is Senior Lecturer and Head of High-Throughput/High-Content Screening at the British Heart Foundation Centre of Research Excellence and School of Cardiovascular Medicine & Sciences, King's College London, United Kingdom. His research is focused on two main areas: i) the identification and molecular characterization of novel cellular factors relevant to cardiac repair and regeneration, and the translation of this knowledge into effective RNA-based therapeutic strategies, and ii) the development of high-throughput and high-content screening technologies genome-wide siRNA, CRISPR and microRNA libraries. Miguel Mano has published over 50 papers in international peer-reviewed journals, including papers in high-impact factor journals (e.g. Nature, Nature Communications, Nature Cell Biology, Nature Microbiology, Cancer Cell, PNAS, EMBO Journal), which received over 3,800 citations; h-index 28. M. Mano is also a co-inventor of 2 patents related to the clinical development of miRNAs for cardiovascular diseases. M. Mano has obtained funding, as Principal Investigator, from different funding agencies (total funding exceeding 1.6M EUR since July 2014).
