Graduated in Biology from the University of Lisbon in 1996, she completed her Master's degree in Ethology at the Instituto Superior de Psicologia Aplicada (ISPA) and earned her PhD in Biology from the University of Porto in 2008. She is an Associate Professor at Ispa - University Institute of Psychological, Social, and Life Sciences (Ispa), where she is the Director of the Bachelor's Degree in Biology, Vice-President of the Scientific Council, and Coordinator of the Evolutionary Genetics Laboratory. She belongs to MARE - Centre for Marine and Environmental Sciences and the associated laboratory ARNET, currently being a member of the MARE board and coordinator of the research line "Biodiversity and Functioning of Ecosystems". Her research focuses on themes related to phylogeny and phylogeography of aquatic organisms, applying molecular biology techniques to solve problems in conservation and management of species. She has participated in more than a hundred national and international scientific meetings and published 90 scientific articles, as well as contributions in books. She has been directly involved in 22 research projects, being the principal investigator and/or responsible at Ispa in about half of them. She has supervised 4 PhD theses (with another 2 currently underway), 5 post-doctorates, and 11 master's theses. In addition to her teaching and research activities, she has also participated as an evaluator in scholarship and project competitions, both national and international, and in various science dissemination activities.
