I have a BSc in Chemistry (1993) from the University of Porto and a Ph.D. in Chemistry (2000) from the same University. I am currently an Associate Professor at the University of Porto, where I teach computational biochemistry, bioinformatics, and drug discovery courses. I do research in the same field, having published more than 300 articles in peer-reviewed journals. My research focuses on studying the reaction mechanisms of enzymes with hybrid quantum/classical methods, in the modeling and simulation of complex enzymatic/proteomic systems, in the simulation of mutagenesis, and in drug discovery. The enzymatic systems I study generally have a therapeutic interest, for which drugs might be developed. I have recently focused on optimizing enzymes of industrial interest through rational mutagenesis and in the study of enzymatic and protein toxins from animal venoms.
