Isabel Antunes is graduated in Chemical Engineering and Chemistry (Education) from University of Coimbra, and has completed a PhD degree in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of Aveiro, in 2016. Her post-doctoral activity has been carried out in reference research laboratories in Portugal namely LEPABE - Laboratory for Process Engineering, Environment, Biotechnology and Energy, at University of Porto, and CICECO - Aveiro Institute of Materials and TEMA - Centre for Mechanical Technology and Automation, at University of Aveiro. Currently, she is researcher in the project "Direct conversion of CO2 to synthetic fuel by hybrid electrolyser cells (https://doi.org/10.54499/PTDC/QUI-ELT/3681/2020), at TEMA - Centre for Mechanical Technology and Automation, University of Aveiro. Her research activity has been focused on the development/design of ceramic materials, cermet, and membrane-electrode assemblies for application in energy conversion and related technologies, such as protonic solid oxide fuel cells (P-SOFC), protonic and oxide-ionic solid oxide electrolysers cells (SOEC), membrane reactors or biomass gasification. Her researcher interests include mechanosynthesis, perovskites, ferrites, molten carbonates, proton conducting ceramic materials, mixed protonic-electronic conducting materials, defects chemistry, high- and intermediate temperature electrochemical measurements, design of membrane-electrode assemblies, and relationships between structure ¿ microstructure and properties of materials (thermal stability, redox behaviour, ionic and electronic transport, electrochemical performance). Isabel Antunes has 22 publications in international peer reviewed scientific journals (304 citations). Most of her articles are published in first quartile journals, namely at International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, Electrochimica Acta, Inorganic Chemistry, Chemistry of Materials, Dalton Transactions, Journal of Alloys and Compounds and Ceramic.
