 ACS Materials Au: Announcing the 2022 Rising Stars in Materials ScienceAs the Editors of ACS Materials Au, we are excited to share with you our inaugural Rising Stars in Materials Science! These 17 early career materials researchers from around the world are pushing scientific boundaries, conducting impactful research at the forefront of fundamental or applied research, and interfacing with other disciplines. |  Meet Dr Joao Conde @CNanolab ⭐An ACS Materials Au 2022 Rising Star⭐The main focus of our research is the use of Cancer Nanotechnology for Precision Medicine in order to tackle crucial medical problems involved in the development of novel and highly effective diagnostic and therapy platforms for cancer. (J. Conde) |  World’s Top 2% Scientists listSo happy and honored to be part of the "World’s Top 2% Scientists list" by Stanford University as scientists with the most impact in 2021. Thank you so much to all @CNanolab, NOVA Medical School - Faculdade de Ciências Médicas, Universidade Nova de Lisboa and collaborators around the world who helped make this achievement possible |

 Presentation @COLife community meeting 2022the COLife Community Meeting 2022 aims to bring together directors, group leaders, postdocs, students, technicians, staff and heads of facilities and technical platforms, all members of our community, who are eager to share their experience and know-how. |  NOVA Sustainability Week 2022Round-table conversation at Universidade Nova de Lisboa in NOVA SUSTAINABILITY WEEK - Nova Medical School #NMSResearch |  Forbes - Study Evaluates Global Burden Of Cancer Based On Preventable Risk FactorsThis past week, The Lancet published findings reported by the “Global Burden of Disease Study 2019,” elucidating which preventable risks impact both cancer-related illness and cancer-related death throughout the world. The study group, which collected data from multiple publicly-accessible vital registry databases globally, analyzed both cancer-related deaths as well as cancer-related disease burden over the period 2010-2019. |

 A new meta-analysis sheds light on the progress of nanotechnology across the globeJoão Conde, from the Cancer Nanomedicine lab at CEDOC, just published a meta-analysis on the progress and investment in nanotechnology, alongside colleagues from iMed from Universidade de Lisboa and i3S from Universidade do Porto, MIT (United States of America) and University of Wollongong (Australia). The research was published on ACS Nano with the title “Facts and Figures on Materials Science and Nanotechnology Progress and Investment”. |  ERC 10 000 GranteesWhat being and ERC meant for João Conde | CEDOC-NMS |  J.Conde Lab | What is the present (and the future) of Nanomedice in the treatment of Cancer?Bárbara Mendes, Diana Sousa and João Conniot are all first authors of a brand new review article in Trends in Cancer, supervised by Doctor João Conde at the Cancer Nanomedicine Lab, part of the ToxOmics research unit. They describe the latest developments in the use of nanoparticle-based technology for the treatment of cancer, particularly in the need to overcome the instrinsic variations in the tumor microenvironment. |

 Indian Long Pepper Plant Packs Punch against Glioblastoma in Animal ModelCancers such as glioblastoma are difficult to treat because drug molecules that cross from the bloodstream into the brain are needed. The researchers developed a hydrogel-type scaffold that could be filled with piperlongumine and implanted. In two different glioblastoma mouse models, they demonstrated that their piperlongumine-filled scaffold destroyed the glioblastomas almost completely and greatly extended mouse survival compared to untreated mice. |  Nanomaterials 2020 Young Investigator AwardMDPI, Nanomaterials Journal |  CEDOC researchers stand out in the top 2% of the most cited authors in their fieldCEDOC researchers Miguel Seabra, principal investigator of Molecular Mechanisms of Disease group, Pedro Póvoa, from Integrated Pathophysiological Mechanisms group, and Winchil Vaz, from Lysosomes in Chronic Human Pathology and Infection group, integrate the group of the most cited scientists worldwide in different disciplines, ranking in the top 2% in their respective fields. João Conde, from Cancer Nanomedicine group, presently working at CEDOC, also integrates this list. |
