Research field (Free keywords) Surface biofunctionalization biomateriais; tribocorrosion; corrosion; mechanical wear
Scientific expertise He has a strong involvement in research on the biomaterials field, namely on the development of functionally graded materials (FGM), surface functionalization of metallic biomaterials and on the investigation of the degradation mechanisms of those materials, essentially from the tribocorrosion point-of-view, and its influence on biological systems. He published more than 100 papers in SCI Journals (h-index=43, according to Google Scholar). In 2021 and 2022, he was ranked in the World´s Top 2% Scientists List, compiled by Stanford University (Materials).
