Ana Margarida Silva is a PhD in Sustainable Chemistry. She holds a degree in Applied Biology at University of Minho in 2016, and a master’s degree in Quality Control at FFUP in 2018. Between 2018 and 2019 she was a technical assistant of safety and efficacy studies at Inovapotek, that provides R&D and testing services to the pharmaceutical and personal care industries. In 2019 she was awarded with a PhD scholarship by Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT) and initialized her project in 2020 at REQUIMTE/LAQV-ISEP. During PhD project, Ana Margarida Silva focused on the valorization and characterization of kiwiberry leaves extracts obtained by green extraction techniques, aiming to be used as active ingredients in skin formulations. In addition, she is the author of about 40 publications in international peer-reviewed journals (h-index 14) and 8 book chapters.
