Curriculum Vitae

Sónia Gomes

Sónia Gomes is a researcher at CIIMAR and invited professor at ICBAS-University of Porto, developing next-generation in vitro models for aquaculture. Following her PhD in Biological Sciences (UTAD, 2010) developed within the EU Oliv-Track consortium, she gained international expertise at prestigious institutions (U. Parma, John Innes Institute-UK, Institute Agriculture Sustainable-CSIC, SP) in genomics and advanced bioimaging techniques. Her research trajectory demonstrates consistent growth and impact. During her postdoctoral research at BioISI-FCUL (2010-2016), she developed innovative molecular tools for food authenticity, leading to an intellectual property transfer and multiple industry collaborations. In 2021, as an Auxiliary Researcher at ICBAS-U.Porto and CIIMAR, she established a pioneering research line of fish in vitro models while coordinating a 50-member team across three R&D units for the ATLANTIDA project. She has secured over 2M€ in competitive funding, leading 6 projects as PI and contributing to 6 National/European projects. Her innovative approach to developing in vitro models won the BlueBioValue prize and launched the FishInSight brand, supported by leading institutes (CIIMAR, U.Nord, i3S) and industry partners (BioFabics, Respilon). As a Scientific Expert for the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), she provides for ocean exploitation through 2050, examining critical areas including marine mining, aquaculture, and sea transport. Her research impact is evidenced by 33 peer-reviewed publications (h-index 16; >700 citations), with 70% in the top 25% of journals. She has received 4 R&D awards and supervised a diverse team of researchers (2 postdocs, 4 PhDs, 7 MSc, and 14 BSc students). As an Invited Professor at ICBAS and FCUP (since 2022), she consistently receives excellent teaching evaluations (6/7), demonstrating her commitment to academic excellence. Her work bridges fundamental research and industry applications, developing sustainable solutions for aquaculture through innovative in vitro platforms. This unique combination of academic excellence and industry engagement positions her as a leading figure in advancing sustainable aquaculture practices
