Short CV
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Graduated in Chemistry by the Belarus State University in 2001 and completed a PhD degree in Materials Science and Engineering by the University of Aveiro in 2006. From 2007 to 2012: Post-doctoral fellow at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Coimbra. From 2013: Auxiliary Researcher at Centre of Mechanical Technology and Automation (TEMA). Main research areas and skills are related with development and characterization of novel materials for electrochemical applications like solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and membranes reactors, also thin films, oxygen non-stoichiometry (oxygen storage) and catalysis.
