Position
Researcher
Marta Oliveira graduated in Chemistry (FCUP, 2007), completed the Master thesis in Quality Control–Water and Foods (FFUP, 2009) and concluded in 2016 her PhD on Sustainable Chemistry (FCUP; FCT-UNL). Since 2019, she is a junior researcher at REQUIMTE-LAQV-School of Engineering Polytechnic of Porto (ISEP). Her main research interests are: i) climate change and forest fires emissions, ii) firefighters' occupational exposure, iii) human biomonitoring, iv) air pollution and indoor air quality, v) environmental and occupational exposure to airborne pollutants (e.g., particulate matter, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, etc), and vi) health risk assessment.
