Bárbara Matos holds a bachelor's degree in Biotechnology (2016) and a master's degree in Biochemistry (Clinical Biochemistry) (2018) at University of Aveiro, PT. She developed her master thesis entitled “Exploring the preventive effect of physical activity on prostate cancer-induced testicular dysfunction” at Institute of Biomedicine (iBiMED) under the supervision of Prof. Margarida Fardilha and Prof. Rita Ferreira. She had a research fellow position in the project “Protein-protein interactions as drug targets: modulation of Phosphoprotein Phosphatase 1 complexes in male fertility” (reference: PTDC/BBB-BQB/3804/2014). Currently, she is developing her PhD research under the supervision of Prof. Margarida Fardilha, Prof. John Howl and Prof. Carmen Jeronimo. Her PhD project entitled “Developing a new approach for PCa treatment: modulation of phosphoprotein phosphatase 1 complexes using bioportides” aims to establish an efficient strategy to disrupt key protein-protein interactions for prostate carcinogenesis, based on well-known PPP1 complexes, with the ultimate objective to impair PCa progression.
