Snežana SAVIĆ is Professor of Pharmaceutical Technology and Cosmetology at the Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Belgrade, FPUB (Department of Pharmaceutical Technology and Cosmetology), with strong background in the pharmaceutical industry, where she worked for 7 years in the R&D department of the pharmaceutical company Galenika ad in Belgrade. She holds an MSc in Cosmetology, a PhD in Pharmaceutical Technology and a specialization in Pharmaceutical Biotechnology. In the period 2018-2024 she was Vice Dean for Research and International Cooperation (FPUB). Prof. Savić is a lecturer for a number of undergraduate and postgraduate courses: Pharmaceutical Technology 1 and 2, Cosmetology, Introduction to Pharmaceutical Biotechnology. She is the head of specialization in the field of Cosmetology.
Snežana Savić is head of the research group Nanoplatforms for Brain and Skin Drug Delivery. She supervised 17 defended PhD theses, mainly in the field of nanotechnology, and coordinated a number of research projects in this field, both in the area of nanodelivery systems for active pharmaceutical ingredients and cosmetics. She is author or co-author of 153 publications in international peer reviewed journals and a number of oral and poster presentations at national and international conferences. She is co-inventor of 2 national patents and has long-term collaborations with research groups in Germany, Greece, Slovenia, UK, Ireland, Poland and Switzerland.
She is also the coordinator for the Serbian partner in the Erasmus+ EMJM project: Health and Wellbeing across the Lifespan (HYGIEIA).
Sara Cordeiro is a Senior Lecturer in Pharmaceutical Sciences at the School of Pharmacy at De Montfort University (Leicester, UK). Following a PharmD from the University of Porto (Portugal) and a PhD in Drug Research and Development from the University of Santiago de Compostela (Spain), she worked as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Queen's University Belfast (Belfast, UK). Throughout these years, Sara has developed a background in pharmaceutical formulation, drug delivery, nanomedicine, vaccine delivery and microneedles for transdermal drug delivery and diagnostics. Currently, she is establishing her independent research group with a focus on improving and facilitating patients' lives through the development of drug and vaccine delivery systems that are easy to manufacture and scale-up, highly efficient and administered through non-invasive routes.

Pharmacist and Biochemist. PhD in Drugs and Medicines from the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of São Paulo (FCF-USP). Associate Professor at the Department of Pharmacy, Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of São Paulo, with experience in the area of Cosmetic Science for over 20 years, involving teaching, research, and scientific publications. Expertise in photoprotection, technologies applied to this class of preparations, cutaneous antioxidant potential "ex vivo", safety and cosmetic efficacy related to sun protection, and development of new protocols.
Sandra Simões is a Principal Investigator at the Department of Pharmacy, Pharmacology and Health Technologies and at Research Institute for Medicines (iMed.ULisboa), Faculty of Pharmacy, Universidade de Lisboa. She is member of the Animal Welfare Body of the Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Lisbon. Both advanced technologies for drug delivery and pre-clinical assays have motivated her research, which has been focused on design, development and biological evaluation of optimal drug delivery systems for dermal and transdermal delivery, for small and large molecules, with special emphasis on phospholipid-based nanocarriers. Research activity deals with drug-excipient and drug-skin interactions, and development of animal models of acute and chronic inflammation, skin infection and wound-healing. These studies require optimization of techniques for the in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo assessment of dermal and transdermal drug delivery. In the last years Sandra Simões has been working on the valorisation of food processing industry by-products and the application of extracted bioactives in skin health. More recently she has been involved in the establishment and optimization of mice models of breast cancer brain metastasis and glioblastoma for the evaluation of therapeutic efficacy of new drug candidates.
