Samara Silva wins Poster Presentation award at Young Algaeneers Symposium
June 15, 2022
Samara Silva, PhD student at LSRE-LCM under the supervision of Professors Filomena Barreiro (CIMO, IPB) and Madalena Dias, won the Poster Presentation Award at the Young Algaeneers Symposium, sponsored by Kees Boender, with the work entitled Spirulina Protein Extract an an Effective Emulsifier for oil-in-water emulsions.
The Young Algaeneers Symposium is a conference that brings together the main stakeholders for knowledge exchange and collaboration and to learn from others, designed and organised by young scientists for young scientists, and with the support of the European Algae Biomass Association (EABA). This years event was held on-line from May 10 to 12.
Congratulations Samara!
