    Nota Biográfica


    (Informação importada da plataforma CiênciaVitae)
    João Castro Gomes is a Full Professor of Civil Engineering at the University of Beira Interior. He obtained his PhD from the University of Leeds, UK, and has since built an internationally recognised research career in sustainable construction materials. His research focuses on carbonated and alkali-activated cementitious materials, with a strong emphasis on the recycling and valorisation of industrial wastes and by-products as eco-efficient binders. His work pioneers innovative approaches to reducing the carbon footprint of the construction industry and advancing low-carbon cement-based technologies. He has coordinated and participated in major national and European research projects, including REMINE and CSTO2NE, fostering international collaboration and strong partnerships with industry. Deeply committed to academic mentoring, he has supervised numerous PhD and master’s students, contributing to the training of future leaders in civil engineering and construction sustainability.
