Miguel Angelo Parente Ribei Cerqueira
Miguel Cerqueira holds a PhD degree in Biological Engineering from the University of Minho (UMinho). His PhD thesis was awarded for the best PhD Thesis by the School of Engineering of UMinho which was focused on edible coating and films for dairy products. In 2011, he started as a Postdoctoral Researcher aiming the development and characterization of bio‐based nanostructures for food applications where he gained expertise on biodegradable films and coatings for food packaging, encapsulation of functional compounds using emergent encapsulation technologies, and on the development and characterisation of emulgels and oleogels for functional foods. Since 2011 he has been working as invited professor in the UMinho. In 2016, he joined the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory to work in the Food Processing and Nutrition group.
