Marta O. Teixeira completed a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry in 2017 by University of Minho. After, she enrolled in the master's in Applied Biochemistry- Biomedicine research field by University of Minho, completed in 2020. During the master's degree, she developed a thesis entitled "The Role of vacuolar membrane proteins in acetic acid-induced cell death". This work resulted in the preparation of a scientific manuscript to submit in a peer-reviewed journal as first author. She also attended different training courses and workshops, scientific meetings and participated and organized several science dissemination/outreach activities. In total she organized 6 events and participated in another 54. Recently, Marta O. Teixeira published 5 articles in peer-reviewed journals, 1 book chapter and 3 conference proceedings. She has also given 11 oral and 13 poster communications, and received 2 award/honor. Participates as a PhD Fellow in 1 project(s) and previously participated as a Masters Fellow in 1 project(s).
