Márcio José de Abreu Marques Rodrigues is currently Adjunct Professor at the Health School of Institute Polytechnic of Guarda (Guarda; Portugal) and Invited Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Health Sciences of the University of Beira Interior (Covilhã; Portugal). He obtained is Msc in Pharmaceutical Sciences (score 16 out of 20, in 2009) at the Faculty of Pharmacy of the University of Coimbra. Later, he was awarded with a PhD fellowship from Foundation for Science and Technology, and he conducted his PhD thesis (2009-2013) focused on the evaluation of interactions between weight loss plant extracts and drugs with a narrow therapeutic range (amiodarone). In Dec. of 2013, he obtained his PhD degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences (Pharmacology and Pharmacotherapy) from Faculty of Pharmacy of the University of Coimbra with the highest grade (Pass with Distinction and Praise, by unanimous vote). After that, he participates as member of the research team of different national funded projects (ICON, Jarmelista value, DermoBio and SAIN) and co-supervised 2 PhD students and 5 Msc students, being some of these works focused on the development of formulations for nasal application as an alternative to the oral route to achieve better drug targeting. Moreover, he completed several workshops/courses: e.g., Demola International Project Studies (2023), Medical Writing and Scientific Communication (2020), Practical and Theoretical Course in Laboratory Animal Science for Rodents (2015), XIII Drug Determination Course by HPLC in Biological Samples (2010). So far, Márcio Rodrigues published 3 book chapters, more than 50 articles (around 50% in top 10 or Q1 journals; 7 as 1st authorship) and was cited more than 700 times (h-index 14; Scopus). He was the member of the jury in more than 25 MSc dissertations and member of the jury of 3 PhD thesis. He has participated as a reviewer of more than 20 indexed journals in the pharmaceutical area (more than 100 reviews concluded). He was also awarded with several national and international awards (6 best poster awards and 1 oral communication). He also has been enrolled in the lecture of Pharmacology, Biopharmacy and Pharmacokinetics, Pharmaceutical Technology, Galenic Pharmacy subjects to BSc/MSc degrees at Institute Polytechnic of Guarda and University of Beira Interior. Currently, his main focus of research is the intranasal drug delivery of compounds in which it is essential the development of the (nano)formulation, as well as its pharmaceutical characterization and subsequent pre-clinical evaluation (in rodents) considering intranasal administration and comparison with the oral and/or intravenous route. Another core area is at the level of chromatographic analysis through the development of validated analytical methods that are an essential tool for the quantification of drugs in different matrices, whether biological matrices such as plasma or brain, or pharmaceutical formulations.
