Curriculum Vitae

Gabriela Ribeiro

Gabriela Ribeiro (GR) is an Assistant Professor (Metabolism & Nutrition LAB) at NOVA Medical School (NMS) and an affiliated researcher of the Comprehensive Health Research Centre (CHRC). GR holds a Ph.D. in Neuroscience (2022) from the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Lisbon (FMUL), an M.Sc. in Metabolic Diseases and Eating Behavior (2015) from FMUL, and a B.Sc. in Nutritional Sciences from the University of Porto (2010). GR's PhD work focused on reward-driven eating behavior (R-dEb) as a marker of obesity and its modulation by bariatric surgery. This research resulted from a collaborative effort between the Neuropsychiatry and Nuclear Medicine-Radiopharmacology units at the Champalimaud Research & Clinical Center in Lisbon, under the supervision of Oliveira-Maia A.J. Later, she was a postdoctoral fellow at APC Microbiome, University College Cork, Ireland, under the supervision of John F. Cryan in research on the impact of diet on the microbiota-gut-brain axis (MGBA), stress and cognitive function. GR's research work advanced knowledge of bio-behavioral determinants of eating behavior. She contributed to demonstrating that altered R-rEb, including hedonic hunger and sweet taste perception, is associated with obesity and predicts weight loss after bariatric surgery. GR also contributed to show, for the first time, that postingestive reinforcement is conserved in obesity and is related to dopaminergic physiology. She validated the first R-rEb for the Portuguese population (The Power of Food Scale), a population-based study. It has been used in several studies in Portugal and Brazil. GR was funded with competitive doctoral and postdoctoral fellowships and 13 scientific distinctions, including prizes, travel awards, and competitive training programs. She is also a registered dietitian-nutritionist (Clinical Nutrition Specialist, CP1838N), obesity advocate, and eating disorders trainer. GR's research currently focuses on the role of the MGBA on R-dEb and on identifying early bio-behavioral predictors of weight and appetite dysregulation. Keywords: eating behavior; food reward; sweet taste; dopaminergic physiology; microbiota-gut-brain axis; cognitive function; obesity; eating disorders; clinical nutrition; prediction; biomarkers.
