The II Iberian Photocatalysis Conference took place at FEUP on November 7^th and counted roughly 100 participants (assisting at FEUP and online). The Conference was chaired by Cláudia Gomes da Silva and was organized by the Iberian Photocatalysis Association with the support of the Industrial Chemistry Group of the Portuguese Chemical Society and LSRE-LCM.

Students, researchers, representatives of companies, local authorities, and research institutes, mainly from Portugal and Spain could share knowledge and experiences about photocatalysis as a technology that can contribute significantly to meeting the objectives of environmental policies and promoting a model of sustainable economic development.

LSRE-LCM congratulates Larissa Paulista for her PhD thesis defense on November 17, 2023. Larissa finished the Doctoral Program in Environmental Engineering, with the PhD thesis entitled "Solar-Driven Thermo-Photocatalytic CO₂ Valorisation into Value-Added Fuels" supervised by Researcher Vítor Vilar, Professor Ramiro Martins, and Researcher Tânia Silva.

The staff and team of LSRE-LCM wish Larissa Paulista success in the new professional stage that will now begin!
