Carolina Vila-Chã received a B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Sports Science and a European PhD in Biomedical Engineering from the University
of Porto, Portugal and Aalborg University, Denmark. From 2007 to 2010, she was a guest researcher at the Center for Sensory-Motor
Interaction, Aalborg University, Denmark. Since 2012, she has been an adjunct professor at the Sports Department of the Polytechnic
Institute of Guarda, Portugal and a researcher at the Research Center in Sports, Health and Human Development (CIDESD), Portugal.
In 2024, she integrated the Center for Research & Innovation in Sports, Physical Activity and Health. Her research is focused
on the assessment of neuromuscular adaptations to training by means of advanced EMG techniques. Her scientific interests also
include exploring neuromuscular alterations induced by ageing, muscle fatigue, delayed muscle onset soreness and their impact
on motor control. Recently, she has been developing I&D projects on physical activity and healthy ageing. She has several
peer-reviewed publications, journals, and conference papers/abstracts in these areas.
