Catarina Leite Amorim (CLAmorim) holds a degree in Biochemistry from Faculty of Sciences - University of Porto and a PhD in Biotechnology, with a specialization in Environmental Science and Engineering from Universidade Católica Portuguesa - Faculty of Biotechnology. CLAmorim was Postdoctoral researcher (2014-2018) at CESAM (University of Aveiro) and since then she is researcher at CBQF - Centre for Biotechnology and Fine Chemistry (Universidade Católica Portuguesa), integrated in the Environmental Biotechnology and Resources thematic research laboratory. CLAmorim research interests include: (i) the application of the granular sludge technology based on microalgae and/or bacteria for wastewater treatment; (ii) bioaugmentation processes; (iii) adsorption-based processes; (iv) microbiome functional dynamics. She has 33 papers in peer reviewed international scientific journals, 2 book chapters and 1 paper in a technical-scientific national journal. Her work led to >60 communications in scientific international and national conferences. She has also been invited to act as keynote speaker and invited speaker in conferences, seminars and workshops. Currently she is a member of the editorial board of the international journals Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, PlosOne and Polymers. She is member of 2 COST Actions: CA20127 - WIRE and CA20133 - FULLRECO4US . She participates(ed) in national and international projects as PI (GReAT - PTDC/BTA-BTA/29970/2017) or team member (AGeNT - PTDC/BTA-BTA/31264/2017; Beer2BioPol - PTDC/BTA-BTA/31746/2017; AquaVal - WaterJPI/0003/2016; MobFood - POCI-01-0247-FEDER-024524/SI-47-2016-10; MULTIBIOREFINERY-POCI-01-0145-FEDER-016403), all devoted to the treatment and valorization of industrial wastewater streams and developed in collaboration with industrial partners. Recently, she was awarded with 2 Proof of Concept Grants, for exploring the commercial potential of research ideas in the wastewater field. For 3 consecutive years (2023, 2022 and 2021), she was awarded with the CBQF Annual Scientific Incentive Award for achieving extraordinary outputs in her scientific activities in previous years. Over the last years, CLAmorim has been involved in students’ supervision, acting as supervisor or and co-supervisor of Master (2) and PhD (3) thesis. She has also been involved in the mentoring of students from different levels, including MSc and PhD ERASMUS research trainings and research grants. She has also been dedicated to teaching at undergraduate and post-graduate levels, teaching 3 units at UCP. Additionally, CLAmorim is/was member of the scientific committee of several international conferences. She has also been involved in the organization of scientific seminars and workshops and in the dynamization of several outreaching activities for the wider public.
