Curriculum Vitae

Joana Fernandes da Silva Magalhães

Joana Fernandes da Silva Magalhães (JM) obtained the BSc degree in Applied Biology (University of Minho, 2009), MSc degree in Molecular Genetics (University of Trás-os-Montes and Alto Douro, 2012), and PhD in Cellular and Molecular Biotechnology Applied to Health Sciences-BiotechHealth (University of Porto, 2019). Currently, she is a Contracted Researcher at LAQV, REQUIMTE, working on the development of nanodelivery systems for the treatment of sensitive and multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (PTDC/BTM-MAT/30624/2017). In the last 5 years, JM has integrated several multidisciplinary teams, being visiting researcher in i3S (Portugal, 2017/04 - 2018/03), King's College London (UK, 2018/04 - 2018/07), Adolphe Merkle Institute (Switzerland, 2018/09 - 2018/11), and ICVS (Portugal, 2020/08-present). These collaborations lead to different research outputs (i.e. publications, participation and organization of scientific events), and to the establishment of a strong network with internationally recognized scientists. JM attended 9 advanced courses and 14 training sessions in transferable skills. She also did two short scientific missions abroad to perform top-notch techniques, being a team member of funded experiments at CELL ALBA Synchrotron (Barcelona, 2019/09) and at SOLEIL Synchrotron (Paris, 2019/11). She was involved in Nano2Prevent project (2020/07-2021/03) that aims to offer nanoparticles-based products to inactivate and detect SARS-CoV-2 virus, being one of the inventors of a patent registration submission (NPAT404/2020). She is currently Topic Editor of Pharmaceutics (IF=6.321), belong to the Reviewer board of Membranes (IF=4.106), and Guest-editor of the Special Issue "Nano-Based Approaches for Infectious Diseases", from Pharmaceutics (IF=6.321). She has acted as referee for top-ranked journals in her area of expertise including Pharmaceutics, Drug Delivery and Translational Research, Materials, Molecules, Applied Sciences, Life, Plos, and Pharmaceuticals. In academia, JM has carried out educational activities through invited lectures at graduation and post-graduation courses, has integrated the organization of scientific events and outreach activities; and has participated as main arguer of BSc and MSc graduation juries. She was supervisor of two MSc student projects (2020, and 2022), co-supervisor of a MSc student final thesis (2020) and of one MSc student project (2022), and is currently co-supervisor of a PhD student funded by FCT (2022-present). Overall, JM actively participated in 7 funded projects as team member. She is the co-author of 12 publications (5 as first-author, 1 as corresponding author, 1 resulting from supervision activities ), and the first-author of 2 invited book chapters, having a h-index=7, and 175 citations (Scopus database, 03.05.2022). She presented her research work in more than 20 international conferences, and was granted with a Best Poster honourable mention (2018) and with IACOBUS prize for Scientific Papers (2019). Her current research interests are focused on drug delivery systems and lipid-based vaccines for infectious diseases.
