If you like organic chemistry and/or polymer chemistry and would like to work in our lab send an e-mail to Prof. Vasco Bonifácio.
Undergraduates
Research training projects (1-3 months, at full or partial time) for undergraduates are always open. In our lab you can learn how to synthesise polymers or luminescent probes for biomedical applications using green chemistry.
Master Projects
For Master applications see the IST webpage. Candidates from other institutions may also apply. Master projects are interdisciplinar and usually made under collaborative research work with other institutions or industry.
PhD Projects
PhD grants applications follow the FCT regulations and are submitted at the FCT Portal. PhD projects are interdisciplinar and usually made under collaborative research work with other institutions or industry.
