Maria de Fátima Tavares de Jesus has a PhD in Biology (specialization in Ecotoxicology and Environmental Biology) by the University of Aveiro (UA, Portugal). She has a long and vast experience in Ecotoxicology, having worked with a wide range of aquatic species and aquatic contaminants. She started her research in 2004, in the University of Porto, during her Msc studies. She addressed the effects of a various chemicals on the oxygen consumption of zebrafish, with the final aim of assessing the viability of this endpoint to be used as a early warning system for water quality. In 2006 she started her PhD, in the scope of a collaboration between the UA and Colorado School of Mines (CSM, Colorado, USA). She focused on the effects of water chemistry parameters (hardness, alkalinity, pH, temperature and dissolved organic carbon), as well as metals, on Daphnia physiological endpoints. During this period she also gained experience with ecotoxicological assays with other aquatic model species (algae, Lemna sp.) exposed to chemicals (e.g. pharmaceuticals and pesticides) both individually and in mixture. Later, she dedicated to the study of the effects of nanoparticles to aquatic biota, having also acquired experience with nanoparticles characterization and enzymatic biomarkers. During her post-doctoral fellowship she developed ecotoxicological tests with other chemicals, namely ionic liquids, deep eutectic solvents (DES) and zwitterions. She has been collaborating with colleagues on the development and validation of an automatic device for organism counting (patented in the United States: US20170322139A1). In 2019, as assistant researcher, she dedicated to assess the toxic effects of wildfires to benthic species, mainly chironomids, and to amphibians (skin microbiome). Recently, she also dedicated to assess the ecotoxicological impact of advanced oxidation processes for water/wastewater treatment. She has participated in 5 research projects. She has more than 30 poster communications and is author of several original papers peer-reviewed in international scientific journals. She also published in outreach journals, aiming to communicate the results of her research to secondary students and teachers. She is Guest-Editor of the Special Issue "Ecotoxicity of Contaminants in Water and Sediment" in the Indexed Journal Toxics (IF 4.146). The keywords of her research include: aquatic ecotoxicology, mixtures toxicity, water quality, wildfires, climate change, ionic liquids, zwitterions.
