Clinical researcher in Vision Sciences with 6 years of experience in visual sciences and ocular drug delivery. PhD in Drug Research and Development (Faculty of Pharmacy) at University of Santiago de Compostela (I+D Farma Group: GI-1645). Worked for the past three years in the design of novel contact lenses for ocular drug delivery dedicated to the treatment of ocular pathologies related to diabetes. PhD program funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under Marie Sklodowska-Curie actions (ORBITAL-ITN: grant agreement 813440). Three internships as visiting researcher at CORE (University of Waterloo, Canada), Ocupharm (Complutense University of Madrid, Spain), and Instituto Superior Técnico, (University of Lisbon, Portugal). Worked in a multidisciplinary team with experts with different backgrounds, as well as from multiple cultures and countries. Former MSc Thesis at Clinical and Experimental Optometry Research Laboratory (CEORLab), focused on strategies to control myopia progression and retinal electrophysiological response. Bachelor and master’s degree in Optometry and Vision Sciences at University of Minho, Portugal.
