Biography

Cristiano Pedroso-Roussado has a PhD in microbiology from the University of Brighton (UK), He currently holds a postdoctoral position at the Institute of Interactive Technologies at the Instituto Superior Técnico (University of Lisbon, Portugal).

Having started his career in an industrial environment (biotechnology, sustainability, strategy), his current work is interdisciplinary and focuses on inclusive design for greater well-being for humans and non-humans. He collaborates with the European lighthouse project Bauhaus of the Seas Sails, bridging biology, art, architecture and local communities, in the search for answers to environmental problems in the Ocean; and with the TIDAL ArtS project, which aims to inspire and transform aquatic landscapes through art and science, uniting nature with culture.

Recently, Cristiano collaborated with the Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary (TBA21), and JIPANGUE (Portuguese not-for-profit), questioning concepts such as the rights of non-humans, ecological technologies, and decolonial design and cultural practices in rural and peri-urban areas.
