Miguel Duarte Ferro. Completed a Master's degree in Quality in Analytical Laboratories in 2013 from the University of Algarve (Portugal), Central South University (China) and Universitat de Barcelona (Spain), and a Degree in Environmental Engineering in 2009 from the Instituto Politécnico de Beja. At the moment I am a PhD student, from the University of Evora, with a tesis entitled "Study of Portuguese extra virgin olive oils according to the producing agricultural method: A qualitative and ecological approach". I am most interested and have developed my work in the areas of Agricultural Sciences with an emphasis on Agricultural and Food Biotechnology.
