Ana Miguel Matos (AM Matos), graduated in Pharmaceutical Sciences at the Faculty of Pharmacy of University of Coimbra (FFUC) (1996), completed her PhD in Pharmacy (2011), Speciality of Microbiology and Parasitology, also at FFUC. Actually, AM Matos is Assistant Professor at FFUC, where she is also Course Coordinator of Master in Clinical Analysis. AM Matos coordinates or participates in lectures of Virology and Clinical Virology, General Microbiology, Parasitology, Haematology, Immunology, and Instrumental Methods in Clinical Analysis Laboratory. AM Matos is manager and technical director of Laboratory of Clinical Analysis from University of Coimbra. AM Matos is integradted member of Chemical Engineering and Renewable resources for Sustainability (CERES). Human infection with JC virus has represented the main subject of her scientific activity. Initial research work focused on new approaches for laboratory diagnosis of PML, a severe demyelinating disease caused by the lytic infection of oligodendrocytes with JC virus. Hereafter, studies towards the characterization of JC virus infection in Portuguese population, possible mode of transmission, pathogenesis and epidemiology was also conducted. More recently, scientific activity has also focused in environmental virology, with foccus on efficiency of municipal wastewater treatment processes in removing pathogenic human viruses (JC virus, Hepatitis E and A viruses, Noroviruses) and prevent its discharge in aquatic environment and transmission to humans. AM Matos was PI of one funded project, and is team member of two other funded projects, all in the research field of virology. AM Matos published 29 papers in peer-reviewed journals, has 37 presentations in scientific meetings, and supervised several Master Thesis.
