Joana Silva (Ph.D) is a contracted researcher at the MARE - Polytechnic of Leiria, PI of FCT project NEURONS4 - New Edge in the therapeUtics of PaRkinsON´s diSeaSe from Seaweed (2022.09196.PTDC; budget 249K) and co-PI of the NEUROVETOX project. From 2022 - 2023, She held a Post-Doctoral Fellow in the project ORCHESTRA (nº70155) at the MARE - Polytechnic of Leiria. From 2018 - 2024 was also invited to teach the Polytechnic of Leiria School of Tourism and Sea Technology, having taught animal cell and tissue culture classes and Marine Biotecnology II in the Biotechnology degree. She I have worked in the field of marine biotechnology focused on the search for marine compounds isolated from macroalgae and their associated microorganisms with therapeutic interest in the field of pharmacology and dermatology. However, the main focus is based on the discovery of marine natural products with neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties and on the characterization of the intracellular signaling pathways activated in an in vitro cell model of Parkinson's disease, having worked in collaboration with prof. Amparo alfonso from the faculty of veterinary, USC (Spain). In addition, she has demonstrated a solid collaborative research network, I having development my research activities in at Marine and Environmental Sciences Center (MARE-IPLeiria) in collaboration with national (BioISI-FCUL; iMED-FFUL; NOVA-FCT) and international (University of Vale do Taquari, Brazil; University of Tübingen, Germany; Medical University of Lodz, Poland; Faculty of Veterinary - USC, Spain) institutions. She has participated as an supervisor and co-supervisor of the work plans of the PhD (2), BSc (3) and MSc (8) students at the Polytechnic of Leiria and the University of Vale do Taquari (UNIVATES). She has been awarded / distinguished 10 teams individually or a team, 7 of them in the last 5 years. Regarding organizational skills, I was part of the organizing committee of the International Meeting on Marine Research in 4 editions (2014, 2016, 2018) and the local organizing committee that joined two of the largest events in marine natural products for the 2nd time in its history, the XVI International Symposium on Natural Marine Products and the XI European Conference on Natural Marine Products. Furthermore, sha has actively participated in activities related to experimental science involving young students, such as Open Ocean Day, Semana Tanto Mar and I Journal of Science. I am the author/co-author of 57 publications in peer-reviewed scientific journals; 7 book chapters, 22 abstracts published in peer-reviewed scientific journals and 56 poster communications, including oral (USA, Portugal, Brazil) and poster communications (Portugal, Brazil, Greece, Ireland, Slovakia, Norway, Spain) at international conferences. She scientific merit led to invitations to review papers for several journals (Marine drugs, pharmaceutics, European Journal of Neuroscience and Inflammopharmacology, e.g) and be Guest Editor of a Special issue from the Marine Drugs, Frontiers in Pharmacology and Frontiers in chemistry. Right now she has an h-index of 19 and over 1219 citations according to Scopus. I participate and participated in 14 projects on competitive national and international that generated an investment of about 13.8 M. Currently, I am also an evaluator member at the National Innovation Agency as an "Evaluator expert".
