Expertise: - Multimodal imaging- Three-Dimensional Nuclear Microscopy - Cell irradiation - Biomarkers - Radiosensitizers for target proton therapy
Short Bio:
Teresa Pinheiro's research activities are focused on three main areas: Biomedicine, Biophysics, and Bioimaging. She searches for innovative technology with the potential to revolutionise medical imaging and ionising radiation treatments. Imaging probes, including fluorescent, X-ray, mass spectrometry and nuclear microscopy modalities are being used to explore the potential of metal complexes/nanoplatforms as radiosensitizers by assessing their uptake and spatial distribution in 2D and 3D cell models. In addition, the irradiating of cells with different types of radiation can aid in the identification of a set of biomarkers relevant to radiosensitization. This offers new possibilities for assessing personalised diagnostic and therapeutic protocols for cancer treatment.
