I graduated in Biotechnological Engineering in 2008, obtained my master´s degree in Biotechnology in 2010 and my PhD in Sciences (Chemistry) in 2014. In 2015 I was awarded an FCT postdoc grant (2015-2018) and in 2018 I was awarded a Junior research contract through the Scientific Employment Stimulus (CEECIND/03040/2017) and I am currently an Assistant researcher at the Mountain Research Centre (CIMO) and Associated Laboratory SusTEC. During my career I´ve been acquiring important skills in the field of food science and technology by exploiting natural matrices. Thinking ahead, from the in vitro results, in my PhD I performed the chemical synthesis of human metabolites to characterize their behavior after metabolization. My research targets are the identification, separation and recovery of functional molecules, as well as their implementation as ingredients and bioactives in food, with an ultimate goal to extract high added-value molecules and reuse them in the food chain (from agriculture to the consumer). Being an integrated member of CIMO/ SusTEC, I´ve been exploiting the agrifood sector, mainly in implementing greener processes, and optimizing ideal conditions of stability for industry application. I´ve been participating in national and international financed research projects, being the PI of 4 financed projects composed of a multidisciplinary consortium with several renowned enterprises and research centers. My research activity resulted in the publication of more than 100 papers in indexed journals, 9 book chapters, 7 patents, related with the development of natural preservatives and functional foods including 1 patent related with the development of hipocholesterolemic extracts; and participated in more than 100 conferences having an h-index of 37. One of the international patents was transferred to the industry, leaded to the creation of a spin-of dedicated to the exploitation of the developed technology, a natural preservative. I am also na Associate Editor of the Frontiers in Nutrition Journal (IF=6.59) and guest editor of several special issues in indexed journals. I am also editor of a book entitled: Natural Secondary Metabolites - From Nature, Through Science, to Industry, from Springer Nature. I was a member of the team that awarded the first place of the European Social Innovation prize (50.000 Euros) and with three National prizes (2 BornFromKnowledge,1 CA Crédito agrícola (10.000 Euros). I am in the list of the 2% most cited researchers in the food area in a study perform by the Stanford University. I organized scientific events and currently supervise Pos-doctoral (2 ongoing), PhD students (12 ongoing), master (3). I have been also invited to evaluate international projects and also Pod-doctoral grant programs. All my research is in straight collaboration with enterprises, promoting the technology transfer from university to companies. I am also Principal Researcher of the collaborative laboratory Aquavalor and also member of the PanBalkan alliance in representation of Portugal. Recently I am head of the research group Food&Biotech inserted in CIMO/SusTEC. My research are relies on: functional foods, biofungicides, vines and wines technologies and natural antimicrobials.
