Email
Expertise: Bioprocess design, SuperPro Designer, Downstream processing, Membrane Processes, Fermentation
Short Bio:
José Santos is a senior researcher in bioprocess engineering, holding a degree in Chemical Engineering (1985), a MSc in Biotechnology (1988) and a PhD in Chemical Engineering (1996), from Instituto Superior Técnico. He has been a faculty member at Instituto Superior Técnico since 1985. His expertise lies in protein and plasmid DNA separation and purification, and bioprocess design for applications in gene therapy. The utilization of membrane processes and the development of alternative microbial GRAS (generally recognized as safe) platforms for pDNA production. lipids, carotenoids and lactic acid, production and separation (biorefinery) are other goals of his research.
