I graduated in Biology at the University of Aveiro (UA) in 1993. The MSc degree was in Food Science and Technology at the Technical University of Lisbon (1997). In 2003, I completed a Ph.D. in Biology at UA. Further, I was intensely involved (9 years) in post-doctoral researches (at UA/CESAM and University of Algarve/CIMA) that explored genotoxic/antioxidant system and gene/protein expressions in aquatic organisms (mussels and crabs), mostly exposed to old (metals and organics) and less to emergent (pharmaceuticals) contaminants. In the last 5 years, I moved my scientific interests to nanomaterial (NM) effects on the soil invertebrates. I could reach a comprehensive knowledge of the NMs mechanistic action for soil invertebrates (reflected in 13 papers). I proved the oxidative stress in E. crypticus and F. candida, through the implementation of scientific procedures (SOP) for metallothioneins and DNA damage. Indeed, until that moment, organism/population responses were mostly evaluated. Moreover, I am involved in the HTT for in-depth studies on NM risk valuation adding new value to my background in traditional ones. I was a team member of FUBIA, BIO-chip and NM-OREO projects related to NM spectra in soil organisms (2014-2019). Currently, I am an assistant researcher at UA (CESAM/Department of Biology) and I am working on ecotoxicological issues linked to NMs of emerging concern. I secured funding for my research with a national (FCT) research project, UNRAvEL (POCI-01-0145-FEDER-029035). I am coordinating a multidisciplinary team of several areas of expertise (Chemistry, Nanotoxicology, Ecotoxicology, Omics) and supervising a Ph.D. researcher, an MSc grantee, and 6 undergraduate students for their project curricular units. Besides, I am establishing a network with international (Aarhus and Salzburg Universities) and national (Chemical Department of UA) scientists. Data have been disseminated in national exhibitions of science (Science Fair, Xperimenta) and workshops (Summer Academy), and communicated in international conferences (ISTA, SETAC Europe). I published 47 articles in international peer-reviewed journals, over 774 citations (without self-citations), with a 48.4 average citation/year and 16 h-index. In my professional activities, I have interacted with 97 collaborators in the coauthor of scientific works. I am a Publons member and recently, I am a guest editor of a special edition "Behavior and Effects of Nanoscale Materials and Plastics—Understanding the Mechanisms of Toxicity" in the Applied Sciences Journal. My research has been included in the scientific field of Earth and Environmental Sciences, in particular related to ecotoxicology, omics (genes, proteins metabolites), soil and aquatic organisms, and old/emergent contaminants (metals, nanoparticles, pharmaceuticals).
