Armando Cardoso graduated in Biology in 2002 and obtained his PhD in Neuroscience at the University of Porto (Portugal). He has been teaching at the University since 2008 and is currently an Assistant Professor of Anatomy in the Unit of Anatomy of the Department of Biomedicine of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Porto (FMUP). Is a member of the Direction of FMUP. Is, currently, the leader of group NeuroGen of CINTESIS. Armando associates his experience in pedagogic orientation and teaching Anatomy with the experience in the neuroscience research with expertise in morphology and behavioral studies, particularly in cognition. Armando is studying the way the brain responds to certain conditions, such as high caloric diets, with a particular interest in neuronal neuroplasticity and in the capacity of regeneration, as well as in the influence of some substances, like antioxidant compounds, in the prevention of a number of age-related neurodegenerative diseases.
