Inês A. T. Almeida has a PhD in Health Sciences - Biomedical Sciences (2014) by the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Coimbra. Before, she completed a licentiate (5 years) degree in Psychology (2006), with specialization in Psychological Assessment, Counselling, and Rehabilitation, at the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences of the University of Coimbra. In the last year and after graduation, she worked with neurological disorder patients in implicit and explicit memory projects, combining neuropsychological and experimental psychology components. After the PhD, she became a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute for Biomedical Imaging and Life Sciences (IBILI), Faculty of Medicine, University of Coimbra, working in the areas of social cognition, decision-making and reward, developing experimental paradigms (neuroeconomic games), using behaviour and brain imaging measures (fMRI). She has also collaborated in projects and studies in Eating disorders, Usher syndrome, and Emotion regulation through neurofeedback. From December 2018, she works as a junior researcher at the Faculty of Medicine, being a member of the R&D unit Coimbra Institute for Biomedical Imaging and Translational Research (CIBIT), ICNAS, University of Coimbra. She is interested in the modulatory role of context in decision-making, developing her own research line on how affective states inform the decision process, using psychological and neuroscientific perspectives and tools. She aims to contribute towards both basic (knowledge about neural and behavioural mechanisms of decision) and applied (social challenges as sustainability and pro-environmental behaviour; mental health and disease) research fields. She collaborates as team member in studies and projects concerning music and emotions, and affect and depression. She coordinated the University of Coimbra team for data acquisition in the crowdsourcing international COVID-19 Rapid-Response project (Psychological Science accelerator, 2020-2023) to disentangle behavioural intentions and the affective impact of the pandemics. In parallel, she has invested in Open Science, training and practices (Eurodoc Open Science Ambassador training; International Network of Open Science & Open Scholarship Communities Incubator Program) to bring open science awareness and practices to her research activities, but also to collaborate in the implementation of open science training programs in Univ Coimbra (Portugal). Previously, she was involved in initiatives such as the PostDocs@UC, in Portuguese ABIC and in the European Council of Junior and Early Career Researchers (Eurodoc), producing policy recommendations, working towards better scientific practices and employment conditions for researchers, institutionally, nationally and across Europe. Her research production and management skills include design, implementation and development of scientific projects, protocols, and experimental tasks; acquisition and analysis of psychological, behavioural, neuroimaging and psychophysiological data; systematic reviews and meta-analyses; scientific writing; and more recently training and practice in psychological instruments adaptation. She has several research outputs, including publications, posters, oral communications, datasets, preprints, protocols and preregistrations. She has contributed with several science communication and outreach activities for school¿s students and the public in general. She contributed as lecturer for a summer school (2 editions) and one training program. She participated in the organization of several workshops and events, and provided external consultancy for one cultural activity. Finally, she has been involved in peer-reviewing activities in indexed journals in both Psychology and Multidisciplinary fields (Scientific Reports; Frontiers; CABN), and participated in 3 evaluation panels for activities of technical and scientific nature promoted by international entities (COST; GWIS).
