Full Professor in Biomedical Engineering
The University Medical Center Groningen
University of Groningen

Prof. Santos (D.Sc. Tech., Chem. Eng.) is a Full Professor in Department of Biomedical Engineering and Head of the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the University Medical Center Groningen/University of Groningen. He was previously Full Professor in Pharmaceutical Nanotechnology, Director of Doctoral Program in Drug Research (University of Helsinki), Fellow Member of Helsinki Institute of Life Science, Director of the FinPharmaNet in Finland, and Chair of CRS Focus Group in Nanomedicine and Nanoscale Delivery. He is also Research Director and Head of Nanomedicines and Biomedical Engineering Group at the University of Helsinki, Faculty of Pharmacy. Prof. Santos is also the Chairman and co-founder of Capsamedix Oy, and Coordinator of H2020 EU MSCA-ITN P4 FIT network. He holds Visiting Professorships at the Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine (China) and University of Tartu (Estonia). Prof. Santos research interests include the development of nanoparticles/nanomedicines and biomaterials for biomedical applications, particularly cancer and heart diseases. His lab makes the unique bridge between medical engineering, pharmaceutical nanotechnology and tissue engineering by combining unique techniques to develop novel therapeutic formulations, including industrial scale-up validation, batch-to-batch reproducibility, and controllability of the biomaterials’ physicochemical properties for translation into the clinic. He is co-author of +400 publications (+14600 citations; h-index = 72) and 4 patents. He has +181 invited talks around the world. Prof. Santos has received prestigious awards/grants, e.g., the “Talent Prize in Science” in 2010 attributed by the Portuguese Government, ERC Starting Grant in 2013 and ERC Proof-of-Concept Grant in 2018, Young Researcher Award in 2013 attributed by Faculty of Pharmacy, the Academy of Finland Award for Social Impact in 2016, and the CRS Young Investigator Award 2021.

MATERIAIS 2022 continues the long-standing and well established MATERIAIS congresses promoted by the Portuguese Materials Society (SPM). The first was held in Lisbon in 1983 and the most recent was also held in Lisbon (MATERIAIS 2019). This edition, the XX Congresso da Sociedade Portuguesa de Materiais, will take place in Marinha Grande, Portugal, from 10 to 13 April 2022.

MATERIAIS 2022 was conceived recognising that we are in the cusp of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which will fundamentally alter the way we work, live and relate to one another. The convergence of physical, digital and biological sciences will bring about profound changes in the way we design products, produce them and the materials they are formed in whether it is from metal, ceramics, glass, polymers, biological materials or composites.

MATERIAIS 2022 will explore the latest scientific and technical developments in Material Science and Materials Engineering, and related areas, bridging different scientific domains under the scope of the main theme “MATERIALS: EXPLORING A BETTER FUTURE FOR THE SOCIETY”. Research and Development in advanced and sustainable materials as well as in their manufacturing techniques which result in new products, processes and materials is of significant value to the socio-economic development of the Society. This International Congress will cover all materials areas, namely Functional Materials; Structural Materials; Materials Processing and Characterization; Materials Modelling and Simulation.

MATERIAIS 2022 includes four special sessions on:

  1. Materials for Additive Manufacturing
  2. Plastics and sustainability
  3. Materials and Processes: Digital-twins
  4. Materials: from research to market

MATERIAIS 2022 will be hosted by the President of the Polytechnic of Leiria at the “House of Culture – Theatre Stephens”, Marinha Grande. The history of Marinha Grande is closely linked to the nearby Pinhal do Rei (the King’s Pine-Forest). This forest of maritime pine-trees was planted in the 13th century by D. Afonso III. Initially intended to hold back the coastal sand which was beginning to invade the agricultural land, the forest gradually began to supply the wood needed for building the carracks and caravels used in the Portuguese maritime discoveries. Together, both the pine-forest and the sands of the Atlantic beaches were fundamental in establishing the crucial position of the region within the metallurgical and glass industries of Portugal. Supplied by an abundance of the raw materials (wood and sand) needed for the manufacture of glass, the region has become the epicentre of the Portuguese glass and crystal glass industry. It has benefited from the skilled workmanship of many generations of craftsmen, producing a series of unique articles whose quality is recognised worldwide. Today, Marinha Grande is a pioneer city in the Glass, Moulds and Polymer Injection Moulding industries, recognised worldwide.

The Congress will be held in the central region of Portugal, famous for the Sunny Beaches, Historic Monuments and Castles, and the Atlantic Coast Landscape.

We look forward to seeing you in April 2022!
