Ana I. Furtado has a master's degree in Chemical Engineering (2014 - 2019) and a PhD degree in Sustainable Chemistry on the development of cheap, green, smart, and affinity polymeric materials through the use of different green synthetic strategies, such as supercritical carbon dioxide and mechanochemistry for application in biopurification field (purification devices, sensing and catalysts). Now, I'm working as Postdoc in the sensor engineering department at the Faculty of Science and Engineering - Maastricht University.
