Objetivos

To develop in students capabilities and skills in the field of nanobiomaterials manufacturing, with knowledge oriented to the design and development of multifunctional nanobiomaterials and nanostructured surfaces, using advanced methodologies and technologies. To this end, the UC will aim to:

1. explore and select the most recent methodologies and technologies applied in the manufacture of nanomaterials, and/or nanostructured materials, in order to modify and control their properties.

2. Understand the basic concepts and properties associated with the manipulation of materials at the nanoscale. As well as, demonstrate how nanomaterials and surfaces can be functionalized.

3. Select and interpret advanced characterization techniques for nanoscale systems.

4. Design a complete manufacturing process of a nanomaterial or a nanostructured surface and identify the relevant process steps and parameters.

Resultados de aprendizagem e competências

The UC provides an introductory description and critical evaluation of the most relevant aspects of nanomaterials, nanostructures and surfaces. Using approaches in structure-size-property-application relationships;

Students will acquire theoretical and practical knowledge that will enable them to know the inter- and multidisciplinary aspects oriented towards the fabrication/design and development of multifunctional nanomaterials, nanostructured structures and surfaces;

Other relevant topics in the areas of nanomaterials will also be addressed such as functionalization/bioconjugation of nanomaterials, smart and responsive nanomaterials, and nanotoxicity.

Design and/or characterization of a nanomaterial or a multifunctional surface with biomedical applications;
