I did my PhD in Developmental Biology in CE3C, FCUL, within the Development and Evolutionary Morphogenesis group, under the supervision of Sólveig Thorsteinsdóttir and co-supervision of Raquel P. Andrade and Isabel Palmeirim, both from the University of Algarve.
After concluding my PhD in 2019, I had the opportunity to work in FCiências.ID and become an R&D project manager, working on the financial and administrative management of internationally funded projects.
I have recently joined the Evolutionary Agroecology group and I am currently the project manager of GrowLIFE (LIFE21-GIC-PT-GrowLIFE-101074425. GrowLIFE is a Climate and Governance Information project, aiming at fostering behavioral change throughout the food system in order to increase the share of practices that are more environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable.
