Helena Oliveira graduated in Biology in 1998, obtained a MsC in Coastal Zones Sciences in 2002 and completed a PhD in Biology in 2009, all at the University of Aveiro (UA). From 2009 to 2018, she worked as a post-doctoral fellow at the Department of Biology and CESAM (Centre from Environmental and Marine Studies), UA, where she held a Researcher position (NT-DL57) between January and March 2019. In 2019 she was awarded with a FCT highly competitive CEEC Individual contract and as Auxiliary Researcher (CEECIND/04050/2017) and since then she has been working as an Auxiliary Researcher at the same institution, where she established a group, ca. 10 investigators (3 researchers, 6 PhD and 1-2 Master students) and develops independent research in the fields of toxicology and human health. Presently, she has co-authored one patent and published 144 papers in international peer review journals (3052 citations in Scopus, h-index 33). Her contributions also include 6 book chapters and more than 100 communications (oral/poster) in national and international conferences. H. Oliveira has participated in 16 research projects, leading four as Principal Investigator. These include two ongoing Horizon Europe projects: the MSCA Staff Exchange project AMRAMR (Grant Agreement 101131231) and the Pathfinder Open 2022 project BMRex (Grant Agreement 101099528). She also coordinated the completed ERA-NET SIINN project PLATOX (ERASIINN/0003/2013, 2015–2018) and the FCT-funded project HOTsPOT (PTDC/BTM-MAT/31794/2017, 2018-2022). Additionally, she has integrated the research team of other 12 FCT funded projects, including two currently active (2023–2026), where she is responsible for tasks involving in vitro cell culture and cytotoxicity/genotoxicity studies. Since 2014, H Oliveira has been actively involved in European research networks, serving as a Management Committee member, substitute, or Working Group member in eight COST Actions related to nanotechnology, nanotoxicology, nanomedicine, micro- and nanoplastics, and venom research (TD1204, CM1403, CA15107, CA17104, CA17140, CA19144, CA20101, CA23131). Notably, she was appointed as Working Group Leader (WG5-Toxicology) in CM1403. H Oliveira has been highly committed with student supervision and has so far supervised 12 PhD students (6 completed, 6 ongoing) and 33 MSc students (32 completed, 1 ongoing). She has also played a key role in organizing scientific events, including two international meetings and four workshops. H Oliveira has been Guest Editor of special issues of various journals (Nanomaterials, Antioxidants, Toxics, Atmosphere). Furthermore, she has served as a project evaluator for the National Science Centre (NCN) in Poland and Royal Society Grants in UK and has been invited to participate in numerous national and international PhD, MSc, and fellowship juries.
