Liliana Carina Pereira Baptista, PhD, is an Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Sport Sciences and Physical Education at the University of Coimbra. She completed her Ph.D. in Sports Sciences in 2018 at the University of Coimbra, Portugal, and her Post-Doctoral Training at the University of Alabama at Birmingham in 2021. In 2021, she won a competitive position at the Research Center in Physical Activity, Health, and Leisure, Portugal, as a Researcher. She authored multiple articles in international peer-reviewed journals and presented at international conferences and symposiums worldwide, receiving six awards and honors nationally and internationally. She has been developing her research projects in exercise, microbiome, and metabolomics while also managing one multi-site randomized clinical trial, the ACE inhibitors Combined with Exercise for hypertensive Seniors. She is the principal investigator for two ongoing projects. During her professional activities, she interacted with more than 70 collaborators. Her research activity is in Medical and Health Sciences, emphasizing Sports Sciences. Her long-term career goal is to develop research that optimizes the efficacy of exercise as a strategy to prevent/ameliorate age-related physical function decline. She is also interested in understanding how the gut microbiome and its metabolites influence cardiometabolic and physical indices and how exercise modulates these biological and functional outcomes.
