Curriculum Vitae
Isabel Henriques
Isabel Henriques is an Associate Professor at the University of Coimbra (UC). As a microbiologist, she explores the intersection
between environment and health, applying One Health principles, with a special focus on antimicrobial resistance ecology.
She co-coordinates the Research Group One Health at Centre for Functional Ecology (CFE) - Science for People & the Planet
and she co-coordinates the Thematic Line Society and Environmental Health at Associate Laboratory TERRA. She graduated in
Biology (1997), earned an MSc in Molecular Microbiology (2001) and completed her PhD in Biology in 2006 at the University
of Aveiro (UA). For 6 years she was a post-doc fellow at Centre for Environmental and Marine Studies (CESAM-UA) and from 2012
to 2015 she acted as Special Visiting Researcher at the Federal University of Pará (Brazil). She secured an Assistant Researcher
position in 2013 at CESAM, under the highly competitive program “Investigador FCT“. In 2018, she moved to the University of
Coimbra (UC) where she became an Assistant Professor at Department of Life Sciences (DCV), later tenured as Associate Professor
(2022). She leads the MicroResist Lab, with 5 PhD students and 2 MSc students; previously she trained 3 post-docs, 11 PhD
and 31 MSc students. Published 131 WoS papers, among other outputs. Coordinated 6 research projects, contributing to several
others. Served on scientific committees, Editorial Boards (e.g., Frontiers in Microbiology, BMC Genomics, and Antibiotics)
and evaluating panels of grant proposals. She participated in 27 PhD juries in 9 universities across 5 countries. She taught
and developed many Microbiology courses, directed the MSc in Microbiology at UA (2017-2018), and currently directs the PhD
in Biosciences (DCV-UC; since 2019). She was member of the Scientific Council of UA (2018) and is a member of the Scientific
Committee of DCV (since 2019).
