Pedro got his Bachelor’s and Master’s degree between 2012 and 2018 at NOVA School of Science and Technology, Portugal. He did his Master’s thesis in the group of Prof. Dr. Vasco Bonifácio at Instituto Superior Técnico, Portugal, where he worked in the developing more effective nanocarriers for ovarian-cancer drugs. Then he went to i3S – Institute for Research & Innovation in Health, Portugal, for one year and a half before joining our group in 2020.
