Rita Rebelo finished her PhD in Biomedical Engineering in 2017 at University of Minho, and her M. Sc. Degree in Biomedical Engineering, with specialization in Biomaterials, Rehabilitation and Biomechanics, in 2009, by the same university. During her career, Rita published 16 papers in peer reviewed journals, 6 book chapters, 1 invited journal cover, and she has 1 patent. Additionally, she participated in several national and international conferences, resulting in 9 conference papers, 20 conferences posters and 8 oral presentations. She was involved in the organization of 8 different scientific events. Furthermore, she developed skills related to project management, supervising skills, working in team and partnerships (through the several collaboration projects), among others. In her professional activities, she interacted with several collaborators and co-authorship of scientific papers. Additionally, in her daily job is included the writing of funding applications for National and European projects (FCT, H2020, LaCaixa, HORIZON EUROPE, (...)), skill that she started to develop even during her PhD. Finally, she has, at the moment, 484 citations, h-index 9 and i10-index 9.
