During PhD, Branco has participated in 5 national R&D projects, and started his international career in 2017 with a short-term scientific mission (3 months) at Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal), working in an European project (HELIX). Since the completion of his PhD (18 months ago), Branco has been working as a Junior Researcher at LEPABE, mostly in 2 projects: SENSINAIR - Low-cost sensors as a tool to reduce air pollution on nursery and primary schools: impact on childhood asthma” (https://sensinair.fe.up.pt/), and “ArRisCO: Firefighters’ occupational exposure to air pollution – impact on COPD and asthma” (https://arrisco.fe.up.pt/), coordinating key R&D activities, and responsible for management and communication. Since PhD, he has been actively involved in the COST Action INDAIRPOLLNET - INDoor AIR POLLution NETwork (https://indairpollnet.eu/), having participated in 2 annual meetings, 1 Early Career Workshop and 1 Training School, and contributing for the WG4 (low-cost sensors for IAQ). Branco published 16 papers in index journals (SCOPUS based h-index 9; 223 citations), with mean IF of 5.21, of which 13 in Q1 and 3 in Q2 journals. He is first author in 10 of those papers (mean IF of 5.06; 8 in Q1).

His PhD thesis was awarded the European title, and he was also awarded with the best oral presentation at the INDAIRPOLLNET workshop. Branco was involved on the organising committee of 4 international scientific events and other dissemination/outreach activities: co-coordinated LEPABE institutional movie (2018), and promoted R&I in public open-days, in schools and in city councils. He co-supervised 3 MSc students (1 concluded, 2 ongoing).
