Additionally, she is a certified researcher by DGAV to develop experimental research with animal models. After finishing her master thesis, Daniela was granted with a Master Research Fellow (CY-SENSORS, 2021). In 2022, she obtained another Master Research grant in collaboration with a Biotech Company (Prilenia Therapeutics) in noeurosciences context. Last September (2022), Daniela was granted with a Master Research Fellow included in a research project financed by BIAL Foundation (73/20). Regarding scientific output, Daniela has published 4 indexed manuscripts, 1 as first author and 1 as co-author in the "Journal of Ethnopharmacology"(IF: 5.20; Q1 in 2022 in Drug Discovery) and another 2 as co-author in "Natural Product Research" (IF: 2.46, Q2 in 2021 in Plant Science) and in Pharmaceuticals (IF: 5.68; Q1 in 2022 in Drug Discovery and Pharmaceutical Science), respectively. In addition, she participated in several national and international meetings, being the first author of 3 and co-author of 2 national oral communications (SPF); author of 1 (IBERPHENOL) and co-author of 2 international poster communication [IBERPHENOL; and another to be presented in May (FENS Regional meeting)]; and co-author of another national poster communication (Annual Meeting in Pharmaceutical Sciences). Daniela has also collaborated in the organization of the SPF meeting (Coimbra, February, 2023); in the supervision of undergraduate and graduate students in the laboratory; and has also participated in science communication activities to the general public. Concerning Daniela´s technical knowledge, she has developed several expertise in biochemistry and molecular techniques, immunocytochemistry, immunohistochemistry, as well as maintenance and manipulation of several animal models. Moreover, she has expertise in rodent behavioral tests, brain tissue manipulation, culture of primary neurons, as well as immortalized cell lines. She has also knowledge in single-cell analysis, mitochondrial characterization techniques, live imaging techniques and microscopy, as well as data treatment and video and image analysis.
