Luísa Correia de Sá graduated in Nutritional Sciences in 2001 in the Faculty of Nutritional Sciences (FCNAUP) from Oporto University. In 2012 finished her master degree in food control and food service management in FCNAUP. In 2012/2013 was awarded with a PhD scholarship from FCT (SFRH/BD/87019/2012). In December 2017 obtained the degree of Doctor (PhD) in Sustainable Chemistry. The goal of the PhD project was the assessment of several plasticizers in obese and non-obese children. I have achieved a high degree of expertise in several scientific fields, namely in HBM, toxicology, epidemiology, human metabolism and analytical chemistry. My current area of expertise and scientific interest is the human Biomonitoring field.
