Daniela Dias holds a PhD in Environmental Science and Engineering from the University of Aveiro (2013), a Master in Environmental Engineering (2008), and a degree on Environmental Engineering, Polytechnic of Leiria (2007). She was Invited Assistant Professor at University of Coimbra during 2020/2021 and 2021/2022 periods. She has collaborated, as author or co-author, in 14 publications in journals with SCI editorial arbitration, all with international scientific production relevance (Quartile 1 or Quartile 2), and in 21 conference proceedings and other pappers. Additionally, she participated in several research projects and collaboration networks directly related with the field of expertise.Her research work is integrated in the Research Centre for Territory, Transport and Environment (CITTA) focusing on emission modelling in urban environment, air quality modeling, modeling human exposure to air pollution and its impacts on human health, and, more recently, urban mobility and transport modeling within the scope of multidisciplinary research.
