Curriculum Vitae

Catarina Maria Pinto Mora Pinto de Magalhães

I am a senior researcher of CIIMAR, invited assistant professor at the Faculty of Sciences, University of Porto where I teach biology undergraduate degree and master programs since 2016. I am also member of the coordination committee of Portuguese Polar Program and member of the Polar Expert Group (PEG) from the EU-PolarNet2. I began my scientific studies with my MSc and PhD at University of Porto in collaboration with Marine Science Department of University of Georgia, USA, and my scientific career consolidated with two postdoctoral fellowships (in collaboration with University of South Alabama, USA and University of Waikato, NZ) awarded by Portuguese Science and Technology Foundation (FCT), followed by a FCT Starting Grant (IF/2013-2018) and and a FCT Employment Stimulus (2020.03139.CEECIND; Assistant Research Level). Currently, I lead a research team within my affiliated associated lab (CIIMAR), composed by three post doctoral researchers, 11 graduated students (5PhD and 6MSc) and two 2 PhD candidates. I also coordinate CIIMAR Blue Young Talent programs (BYT, BYTplus, BYTPhD), where students have the opportunity to work at CIIMAR within a scientific environment of excellence. I am working on microbial ecology and biogeochemistry with a main focus on the Nitrogen cycle and the communities responsible for N transformations in different ecosystems including the Polar Regions (Arctic and Antarctica). Contributions from my research were published in several international journals and presented in multiple national and international meetings and invited talks. I have experience in leading or co-leading scientific projects and in participating as a team member or core team member in several national and international projects. I participated and co-leaded international microbiome metagenomic analysis consortia, and I have solid collaborations with international scientists within my specialized area of research (e.g. Univ. of Georgia and Alabama, USA; Univ. of Waikato, NZ; Norwegian Polar Institute, NW) and in complementary scientific research areas such as Bioinformatics (MPI, EMBL, IGC), engineering (FEUP, INESC-TEC) and big data analytics (FCUP-UP, Big Data Institute of DAL University). I have also promoted the dialogue between scientists and society by participating in Citizen Science Initiatives, and in numerous outreach activities on behalf of CIIMAR and PROPOLAR projects.
