Elisabeth Ekoh is a Biomedical Engineer and PhD candidate in Bioengineering and Biosciences at Instituto Superior Técnico (IST), Portugal, specializing in advanced biomaterials, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine. She earned both her Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Biomedical Engineering from Instituto Superior de Engenharia de Lisboa (ISEL) with distinction, receiving a final grade of 19/20 for both theses. Her research has focused on innovative biomaterials for 3D-printed biomedical devices, bone regeneration, and chronic wound healing, with work presented at international scientific conferences and published in peer-reviewed journals. Following a competitive selection process, Elisabeth joined the Biomaterials Research Group at IST as a research fellow on the FCT-funded **Milk4WoundCare** project, contributing to the development of sustainable biomimetic platforms for chronic wound care using milk-derived biomaterials. Her research has resulted in publications in the *International Journal of Pharmaceutics* and *The Journal of Supercritical Fluids*, further advancing the development of next-generation biomaterials for wound management and biomedical applications. Currently, her doctoral research focuses on **Multifunctional Electroactive Hydrogels for Theragnostics of Chronic Wounds**. Alongside her scientific career, Elisabeth is a committed disciple of Jesus Christ and seeks to combine scientific excellence with service, innovation, and solutions that positively impact human health and society.

She earned her Diploma in Electrical Engineering from the Technical University of Dresden with a grade of 1.4, completing her studies within the standard period. During her studies, she worked as a tutor in several subjects and also supported many people through her involvement with Caritas and Stube. Thanks to her outstanding academic achievements, she was repeatedly recognized as one of the best international students in Saxony. Now a mother of two, she currently works as a project manager at Daimler and serves God together with her husband in southern Germany.

She successfully obtained her Bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Engineering from the Technische Hochschule Mittelhessen (THM) in Gießen on March 18, 2024. She graduated with an outstanding grade of 1.0. Congratulations on this remarkable achievement!
