Rui Campos joined the Diéguez Research Group at the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL) in October 2024. He is currently focused on advancing a (bio)sensor for the continuous detection of inflammation biomarkers as part of the WINGS project. His research interests include the development of bioelectrochemical assays for the precise detection of nucleic acids, proteins, and small molecules.

Dr. Campos earned his Ph.D. in Chemistry from Durham University (UK) in 2013. Before his current role, he conducted postdoctoral research at the Interdisciplinary Nanoscience Center (iNANO) at Aarhus University (Denmark), the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (Portugal), and the A-PECS laboratory at the University of Antwerp (Belgium). During his tenure at A-PECS, he developed a multiplex photoelectrochemical biosensor targeting microRNAs associated with prostate cancer, as part of the INFORM project funded by an individual fellowship of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions.
