Maria João Pereira has held the position of Full Professor at the Instituto Superior Técnico (IST) of the University of Lisbon (Ulisboa) since 2019, specializing in Geostatistics. Beyond her primary focus, her interests extend to other data sciences, including machine learning methods and digital image processing. While the majority of her work is in environmental applications, she has also made notable contributions to health, earth, and energy resources applications. A founding member of the Center for Petroleum Reservoir Modeling in 1996 at IST/Ulisboa, Maria João Pereira later played a crucial role in establishing the Center for Natural Resources and Environment (CERENA). Serving as CERENA's president from 2012 to 2021, she has been actively involved in shaping its trajectory. At IST, she served as the coordinator of the Master's degree in Petroleum Engineering from 2014 to 2020 and later took on the role of coordinating the PhD in Earth Resources from 2021 to 2022. Throughout her career, Maria João Pereira has led and participated in over 30 scientific projects, resulting in the publication of more than 120 articles in scientific journals and conference communications. Currently, she serves as the Head of the Department of Mineral and Energy Resources Engineering at IST and holds the position of President at the international association geoENVIA, dedicated to advancing the application and use of geostatistical methods for environmental issues.
