Curriculum Vitae

Henrique José Matos Morão Mingote Cardoso obtained his BSc and MSc degrees in Biomedical Sciences from the University of Beira Interior in 2012 and 2014, respectively. In December 2019, Henrique Cardoso obtained his PhD degree in Biomedicine from the University of Beira Interior with a doctoral grant from the Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia, Portugal. Currently, he is a member of the FCT-funded project ProMETAB, co-supervising 2 master students. He published 12 scientific articles (7 as first author), 2 in D1 and 4 in Q1, in journals indexed to the ISI Web of Knowledge. He is co-author of a book chapter, 16 oral communications (9 as first author) and 12 posters presentations (3 as first author), as well as chairperson of 1 scientific session at the 2nd FEBS Advanced Lecture Course on Oncometabolism. Henrique Cardoso works in the area of Health Sciences with emphasis on Oncology and Biological Reproduction. His scientific interests include the action of androgens/endocrine disruptors in controlling cell survival and energy metabolism in male reproductive organs and prostate cancer. PhD research work mainly focused in the metabolic features and vulnerabilities of prostate cancer. In 2018 Henrique Cardoso co-founded the inSci company, which dedicates to the organization of scientific events, scientific training, science communication and web design.
