Sílvia Catarino completed her PhD in Biology in 2022 at the University of Lisbon, School of Agriculture (ISA). She also holds a Master's degree in Ecology and Environmental Management, awarded in 2014 by the University of Lisbon, Faculty of Sciences, and a Bachelor's degree in Biology completed in June 2012 at the same institution. Currently, Sílvia is a Researcher at the Centro de Ecologia Evolução e Alterações Ambientais (cE3c/FCUL). Her research has resulted in the publication of 22 papers in prestigious international peer-reviewed journals, such as Conservation Letters, Scientific Reports, Frontiers in Plant Science, Global Ecology and Conservation, Ecology and Evolution, and the Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society. She has actively disseminated her research through 32 oral presentations and more than 30 posters at national and international conferences. She has played an active role in organizing scientific events and providing guidance to students. Her main research areas include tropical flora, biodiversity conservation, agrobiodiversity, and the development of strategies to mitigate the effects of climate change.
