Position
Researcher
Degree in Chemical Engineering (1997, School of Engineering of Polytechnic of Porto), a Master in Environmental Engineering (2002, Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto), a European PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences (2011, Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Porto) and from 2011 a Postdoctoral grant from the FCT.
Since 2000, she is Researcher at REQUIMTE (an associate Laboratory), the largest network in Chemistry established in Portugal.
Between 2009 and 2017, she made several International stays in prestigious Research Centers (Spain, Brazil, Serbia, Argentina) focused on the development of new analytical devices for the detection and quantification of analytes in different matrixes, combining biosensors field and nanotechnology.
