Curriculum Vitae

Ana João Gomes Rodrigues

I graduated in Applied Biology in 2003, with the research trainee at Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC), Holland. From 2004 - 2008, I did my PhD at University of Minho, Portugal (Patricia Maciel's Lab) and at David Geffen School of Medicine - UCLA, USA (Dan Geschwind's lab). During my PhD, I characterized the first knockout animal model (C. elegans) for ataxin-3, the protein involved in spinocerebellar ataxia type 3. In 2009, I started a post-doctoral position at ICVS (Nuno Sousa's lab), where I showed that early life stress induces long-term epigenetic changes in dopamine receptor D2 in the rodent striatum, with significant impact in emotional behavior. In 2013, I was awarded with the competitive FCT Investigator position (Starting Level), allowing the establishment of my research niche at the host institution ICVS | School of Medicine, University of Minho, Portugal. My research is focused in understanding what drives motivated behaviors and how the brain processes positive and negative stimuli. In addition, my team is also exploring how stress in specific developmental windows can imprint long-lasting marks in the brain, leading to maladaptive behavior. In the last years we have been allying fundamental with clinical research, combining rodent and human data, and using a variety of techniques (rodents - in vivo electrophysiology, optogenetics, calcium imaging, behavioral evaluation, tracing studies; humans - fMRI, neuropsychological evaluation). Due to the excellent work of my team, we were awarded with an ERC Consolidator grant, a La Caixa Foundation Health research grant and a FCT project (2020 and 2021). I published 75 papers including in journals such as Nature Communications, Molecular Psychiatry, Cell Reports, Neuropsycopharmacology, eLife, amongst others. I am an Associate Editor of Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, and Editorial Board of Brain Research and Frontiers in Molecular and Cellular Science. I supervised 8 post-doctoral fellows, 9 PhD students, 18 MSc students, and numerous undergraduate students. I am also the Science Outreach Coordinator of host institution, responsible for science dissemination and health literacy promotion for the society. I organize events such as the Brain Awareness Week; Science & Technology week; Scientist for one day.
