Curriculum Vitae

Pedro Alexandre Soares

Pedro Alexandre Soares completed his Licenciatura in Biology in 2003 at the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Porto. He obtained his Doctor of Philosophy through the Marie Curie PhD programme Early Stage Training in Advanced Genetic Analysis (AGAPE) in 2009 at the University of Leeds, United Kingdom. Following his PhD and a one-year postdoctoral contract, Pedro returned to Portugal to join IPATIMUP (Porto), where he continued his research in human genetics and evolutionary genomics. Seeking to combine research with a stronger involvement in teaching and to apply his transversal expertise in genomics and bioinformatics across diverse biological questions, he later joined the Centre of Molecular and Environmental Biology (CBMA) at the University of Minho in Braga. Pedro currently holds the position of Assistant Professor at the University of Minho lecturing Genetics, Biological Anthropology and Bioinformatics, where he conducts research at CBMA. Pedro has an established academic record, with several influential articles, book chapters, and a forthcoming book to be published by Oxford University Press. His publications, particularly in the fields of human genetics and archaeogenetics, have accumulated more than 5,200 citations in Scopus. Throughout his career, he has supervised six PhD students who successfully completed their degrees and currently supervises four PhD theses while co-supervising another two. In addition, he has supervised or co-supervised more than 30 MSc dissertations, primarily in Molecular Genetics and Bioinformatics. Pedro has served as Principal Investigator in three competitive research projects and as co-Principal Investigator in another project focusing on human genetics and genomics. Overall, he has secured approximately €1 million in competitive funding as Principal Investigator. He has also contributed as a team member in nearly twenty research projects spanning multiple areas, including ecology, biotechnology, and health sciences. In addition, he has been Principal Investigator in one project and co-Principal Investigator in two projects related to advanced computational resources. Pedro’s main research interests lie in genetics and heredity, human genetics, evolutionary biology, and bioinformatics, with a particular focus on population genomics and the reconstruction of human evolutionary history using genomic data. He currently serves as Head of the GEB Lab (Genomics, Evolution and Bioinformatics Laboratory) at the Institute of Bio-sustainability (IBS). In addition to his academic activities, Pedro is also a partner and Scientific Advisor at the biotechnology company ÉonGenetics.
