Inês Ferreira graduated in Chemical and Biochemical Engineering in 2017 from Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia, Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, with a master thesis in the area of CO2 capture using mixed matrix membranes with metal-organic frameworks supporting ionic liquids. After that, she worked within a research fellowship under a national project at FCT NOVA.
In September 2018, she started her PhD in Chemical and Biochemical Engineering, at Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia, Universidade NOVA de Lisboa, in the development of biopolymeric structures using biocompatible ionic liquids as solvents for biomedical applications.
