I received my BSc (2011) and MSc degrees (2013) in Biochemistry from the University of Porto (UP), Portugal. After small internships in experimental groups, I have started my scientific career in the Theoretical and Computational Biochemistry (TCB) group with Prof. Maria João Ramos and Prof. Pedro Alexandrino Fernandes, with a BSc fellowship (FCT), in the project "New drugs for hypertension" (PTDC/QUI-QUI/121744/2010). I have conducted my PhD studies in the same group, until September of 2018, with a PhD fellowship, financed by FCT (SFRH/BD/95962/2013). During this stage, I attended the Doctoral Program in Sustainable Chemistry (at UP, University of Aveiro and Nova University Lisbon). During my PhD I explored the origin of the catalytic power of different enzymes (Renin (ACS Catal., 2015), PatG macrocyclase (Chem. Eur. J.,2016), HIV-1 protease (JCTC,2017; Chem. Sci.,2019), and alpha-amylase (ACS Catal. 2018)). I have studied the atomistic details of their catalytic mechanism, and the influence of conformational diversity in catalysis, using QM/MM methods and MD simulations. From these works resulted 6 publications in high impact factor journals. In 2018, I was awarded with a 2 years postdoc fellowship from Stiftelsen Olle Engkvist Byggmästare (grant 190-0335) and I moved to Sweden, to work with Prof. Lynn Kamerlin, at Uppsala University (UU). From August 2020 to July 2022, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the same group. My research was focus on applying different computational methods to understand biological processes, such as enzyme catalysis and phosphate hydrolysis. I was involved in multidisciplinary projects, working with different enzymes, such as GTPases (JACS, 2019), Lactonases, Protein Tyrosine Phosphatases (Chem. Sci. 2022), in close collaboration with different theoretical and experimental groups. In 2022 I was awarded with a Scientific Employment Stimulus contract by FCT, as a Junior Researcher at LAQV-REQUIMTE. Currently, my research is focused on molecular targets for flavivirus drug discovery. During my scientific career, I have published 14 papers in peer-reviewed journals, 5 of them as first author. I have participated in national/international meetings, totalling 18 communications (6 oral and 12 posters). I was involved in teaching activities both at Uppsala University and Porto University. Additionally, I have participated in supervising training courses ("Doctoral Supervisor Training Course" and "Supervising PhD Students Course"), organised by the Faculty of Science and Technology (Uppsala University) and I have mentoring/supervised 9 students at bachelor and master level.
