I graduated in Biochemistry prior to the Bologna regime by the University of Algarve (2006) and obtained my MSc in Horticulture, in the same University in 2019. I¿ve been working at CEOT since 2015, as a researcher (BI fellowship), in the determination of the optimum harvest date for the most important varieties of Citrus fruits of the Algarve, using non-invasive methods, namely Vis / NIR reflectance, associated with GIS mapping. I have also been involved in the determination and analysis of the several physiological / biochemical/molecular parameters of leaves of young cork oak trees affected by Cork Oak Decline Disease, aiming to establish a non-invasive method to diagnose it. Besides Spectroscopy, Chemometrics and Precision Agriculture I am also interested in plant physiology, fruit ripening, sink-source relationships and also sugar and acid metabolism. I was granted with a Ph.D. studentship (2021.05979.BD) in the FCT 2021 Call for Ph.D. Studentships. Workplan, entitled ''Unraveling the causes of citrus intervarietal differences on the ripening onset: an integrated physiological and omics approach'' started on 1st Jan 2022.
