Ana Batista is an assistant researcher at the Center for Innovative Biomedicine and Biotechnology (CIBB), Faculty of Medicine, University of Coimbra with over 10 years experience in the exciting and growing field of biophotonics. She completed her MSc in Biomedical Engineering in 2010 at the University of Coimbra, Portugal and her PhD in Systems Engineering in 2019 at the Department of Biophotonics and Laser technology, University of Saarland, Germany. Her major research interests focus on the application of biophotonic techniques for medical and biological purposes, leveraging laser technology to advance cell and tissue imaging. Ana has consistently worked on the development and implementation of non-invasive and label-free imaging modalities to advance medical diagnosis. Recently, Ana has expanded her scope to broader biomedical applications, namely, lipid nanoparticle delivery of therapeutic agents in oncology immunotherapy. Throughout her career, Ana has contributed to several research projects, culminating in 21 journal papers, 9 of which as first author and 1 as last author (in press). Evidence of her active engagement with the scientific community is also her contribution to 2 book chapters, over 30 conference proceedings, and over 70 participations in internationally renowned conferences. Ana has also contributed to knowledge dissemination through mentoring of several young researchers, co-organization of several international meetings, and serving as a peer reviewer for several esteemed international journals.
