Rui Pedro Santos Silva

Manufacturing Technician @ Euflex

Bruxelles, Belgique

I recently completed my thesis in Materials and Tissue Engineering, where I investigated the development of stem cells and cardiomyocytes on scaffolds produced by Melt Electrowriting. My objective is to further my career in Biomedical Engineering and Nanotechnology, as well as related fields. Over the past five years, my work within diverse research groups, combined with a year spent in the Netherlands working on my thesis and collaborating with a manufacturing company, has significantly enhanced my technical expertise and my ability to work effectively in multidisciplinary teams to achieve common goals.
