Sofia Fernandes is a doctorate researcher at the Instituto de Biofísica e Engenharia Biomédica (IBEB) of Faculdade de Ciências, Universidade de Lisboa (FCUL), Portugal. She has a PhD in Neurosciences. Her research is dedicated to study the effects of electromagnetic stimulation in biological tissues for therapeutic applications, using realistic computational models of the human brain and spinal cord, field of research that she leads at IBEB since September 2022. Her academic background combines clinical and exact sciences, with BScs. in Physiotherapy and Physics, and MSc. in Astrophysics, reflecting a multidisciplinary research methodology. Sofia published 13 articles in international peer-reviewed journals (9 in Q1 of respective fields), 4 book chapters and 26 conference proceedings. Currently, she is an invited professor in the MSc. programs in Biophysics and Biomedical Engineering (FCUL) and in Physiotherapy (Escola Superior da Tecnologia da Saúde de Lisboa, ESTEsL), where she lectures Bioelectricity and Electrophysiology and Human Movement and Motor Control, respectively. She is also supervisor of 3 PhD (1 completed), 12 MSc students (5 completed, 2 as consultant) and several internships of national and international BSc, MSc and PhD students. She was in the organizing committees of PSMR 2017 and BHBM 2022, 2023 international conferences, invited speaker in 1 international conference on neurophysiology in 2019 and 1 national conference in 2024, and organizer of 4 symposiums in 4 international conferences on modelling and experimental strategies in non-invasive spinal stimulation (1 in 2020, 2 in 2022 and 1 in 2023). She is guest editor of the special issues "Electromagnetic Modeling for Brain Stimulation" (PMB, IOP Science) and "Emerging Talents in Human Neuroscience: Neuromodulation 2023" (Frontiers in Human Neuroscience). Sofia is currently the portuguese PI in the international consortium "DC4MND- Multidimensional mechanistic investigations of trans-spinal direct current stimulation in motor neuron disease", awarded by the JPND 2022 call. She also has ongoing collaborations with the University of Texas Southwestern and the University of Seville. Her previous experience includes a doctorate researcher position in the FCT R&D project Stimuli2BioScaffold - PTDC/EME-SIS/32554/2017 at CDRSP - Centre for Rapid and Sustainable Product Development, from the Instituto Politécnico de Leiria, Portugal, during 2020, in modelling strategies to optimize electromagnetic applications in Tissue Engineering, with whom she still collaborates. Sofia had also previous researcher positions in FCT projects DAI/2019/13 (statistical analysis of ALS biomarkers, Nova Medical School, 2019) and PESO/P/PRO/40154/2000 (analysis of near-IR images of circumstellar disks, FCUL, 2001-03). She also won a 4-year FCT PhD scholarship in 2014 (SFRH/BD/100254/2014).
