André R.A. Marques graduated in Biochemistry (BSc, University of Lisbon; MSc, University of Amsterdam) and currently works as Assistant Researcher at the NOVA Medical School (NMS, Portugal). He obtained his Ph.D. in Medical Biochemistry at the University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands. During his Ph.D. studies he investigated the role of lysosomal homeostasis in neurodegeneration. Afterwards, André developed a 3-year PostDoctoral Project at the University of Kiel (Germany), centred on Batten disease (NCL2TREAT Consortium), the most common inherited neurodegenerative disease in children. This project resulted in the registration of an international patent for the treatment of Batten disease, of which he is co-inventor. Since 2019, A. Marques has been developing a project investigating the role of lysosomal dysfunction in atherosclerosis at the NMS. Last year, he was awarded a position as Assistant Researcher by the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT), to develop a 6-year project focused on the interplay between lipid metabolism and organelle dysfunction in human disease. During the course of his career, A. R. A. Marques has published 31 scientific articles (h index = 18, Citations = 1181, Source = Scopus) and was awarded two research grants from the FCT. He has also participated in numerous international scientific conferences and workshops, having been selected to present his work on four occasions, including at a Gordon Research Conference. Furthermore, he has supervised several BSc, MSc and PhD students, and a M.D. doctoral thesis.
