His curriculum vitae includes, as of January, 330 peer-reviewed manuscripts, 333 conference communications (oral and poster), 23 research projects, 3 patents, 1 license agreement, 1 authored book and 3 edited books. He has chaired 75 international conferences and currently serves on the organizing or steering committees of 7 others. Dr. Capelo was a member of the advisory board of Talanta from 2006 to 2014 and has been Editor-in-Chief of the online journal JIOMICS (www.JIOMICS.com) since its creation in 2011. He is presently supervising or co-supervising seven doctoral theses and has previously supervised 3 postdoctoral fellows, 10 PhD students, 9 Master’s students and 8 final-year projects. His current research focuses on the development of novel methodological approaches in personalised medicine, prescriptomics and biomarker discovery using nanoparticles, as well as on innovative proteomics strategies to unravel bacterial resistance to antibiotics. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry and a member of the Portuguese Chemical Society.
