R&D Staff / Researcher at CICECO, University of Aveiro from Portugal

Natércia C. T. Martins graduated in Industrial Chemistry in 1996 (University of Coimbra) and obtained her PhD degree in Chemistry in 2005 (University of Lisbon, Instituto Superior Técnico). She was a Post-Doctoral research fellow at several prestigious research institutes in Portugal, namely CICECO-Aveiro Institute of Materials (University of Aveiro), CESAM (Centre for Environmental and Marine Studies, University of Aveiro), LEPABE (Laboratory for Process Engineering, Environment, Biotechnology and Energy, University of Porto) and ICEMS (Institute of Materials and Surfaces Science and Engineering, University of Lisbon). She is currently a Researcher (since 2018) at the CICECO- Aveiro Institute of Materials (University of Aveiro, Portugal). Natércia C. T. Martins published 16 papers in peer-reviewed scientific journals (> 700 citations, h-index = 11, Scopus) and presented 28 poster/ oral communications at national and international conferences. She interacted with 40 co-authors in her publications. Several of her papers were published in major scientific journals, namely ACS Applied Nanomaterials; Cellulose; Applied Catalysis B: Environmental; and Colloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects. Two of her recent papers have already more than 100 citations. She has participated in 8 research projects, 2 of them financed by the European Commission. Her main areas of research are Nanoscience, Natechnology and Materials Engineering with focus on the development of nanostructural materials for SERS detection of water pollutants and food contaminants. She has also a broad experience in the synthesis of composites of biopolymers (cellulose, chitosan, alginate) and metal or inorganic nanoparticles and in ink-jet printing of nanomaterials for sensing applications.

Researcher at CICECO-University of Aveiro from Portugal · Aveiro

I graduated in Industrial Chemistry (2006, UA) and completed my MSc in Analytical Chemistry (2007, UA). I completed the PhD in Nanosciences and Nanotechnology (2013, UA) under nanocomposites for SERS. Over this time, I developed vast chemical synthesis experience of composites, metal colloids, and biodetection. My research was recognized by Phantoms Foundation, receiving the Imaginenano ¿ Nanospain Conf. Travel Award (2011) and TNT2012 Fees Award (2012). From 2014 to 2017, I received a FCT postdoc fellowship to begin a research line that combines nanomaterials and Raman spectroscopy applied to sustainable nanotechnologies. I have developed a new research line at CICECO on non-trivial Raman methods for nanoscale characterization in an analytical chemistry context applied to health/environmental sectors. I have been the principal operator of the first RCM/AFM in Portugal, located at CICECO, providing scientific support. Since December 2017, I am a contracted researcher at CICECO. In the last 5 years (2014-present, with 4+5 months gaps for maternity leave), I co-supervised 2 MSc students (FAME Master-2015; Chemistry-2019), 1 research student (2017). My work was published in reputable journals on Materials Science (Talanta IF=5.3, Nanomaterials IF=4.3) and specialized journals (J Raman Spectrosc). My work on Raman imaging applied to dyeing textiles fibres was internationally recognized by WITec Silver Award-2017 for original/innovative research using RCM, and the Royal Society of Chemistry selected my critical review for journal cover (Phys Chem Chem Phys IF=3.4). I have 11 papers as first author (6 as corresponding author), including a book chapter (IntechOpen), 16 collaborative papers in several areas (catalyze, water quality monitoring, medicine) and 8 oral communications (1 invited talk, 2020). I have collaborated with an international scientific group within Instituto de Catalisis y Petroleoquímica/Spain (1 collaborative paper). I have contributed to a co-promotion project with Bosch Termotechnology (1 collaborative paper). I am a team member on COST action (CA19118, 2020-24), and I have participated in research training on WITec Headquarters in Ulm/Germany (2014, 2019). I was a member of an international academic jury of PhD degree (UAMadrid, 2019). I am currently a Topic Editor of Sensors ((ISSN 1424-8220), Guest Editor of the Special Issue "Nanostructured Materials Systems for Optical Sensing" and member of the Reviewer Board of Biosensors (ISSN 2079-6374). I have participated in the radio broadcasting "Os Dias do Futuro-A investigação e a inovação" concerning the application of Nanotechnology into the textile industry. Overall, I have co-authored 40 papers in SCI-indexed journals and 1 book chapter, summing nearly 500 citations and an h-index 12 (Scopus) and 1 national patent (submitted, 2020). I was a team member of 1 research project (56000 EUR from FCT, 2008-10) and a member of the organizing committees of 8th Inorg Chem Conf (Portugal, 2009) and RICI8 (Portugal, 2019).
