About me
Inês Guerra has a MSc in Biological Engineering from Instituto Superior Técnico (Lisbon, Portugal). She has been in the microalgae field since 2019 when she did her master´s thesis on Allmicroalgae’s production facilities about the production mode of Nannochloropsis oceanica and Chlorella vulgaris in pilot scale tubular photobioreactors. After she stayed at Allmicroalgae working as a research fellow in the Algavalor project where she gain expertise in the cultivation of several microalgae species, from laboratory to industrial scale. In 2021 she started her PhD working during the first year in the optimization of an organic medium for the industrial cultivation of Arthrospira platensis and the optimization of culture conditions in diverse pilot-scale photobioreactors. Now she has joined GreenCoLab to work in the biorefinery and food groups to extract compounds of interest from microalgae that can be incorporated into food products.
