I completed the Master degree in Toxicologia e Ecotoxicologia in 2019/10/21 by Universidade de Aveiro and Licenciatura in Biologia in 2017/10/03 by Universidade de Aveiro.I am currently doing my PhD n Biologia by Universidade de Aveiro. Published 12 articles in journals. Organized 1 event. Participated in 8 events. I am a member in the project MIRACLE oencapsulation of Rhizobacteria and VOCs to increase plAnt growth and toLErance to drought: a biological approach to meet an agronomic need" funded by FCT. I gave different oral presentations and poster presentations in conferences. I work in the area(s) of Natural sciences with emphasis on Biological Sciences with emphasis on Biology, Natural sciences with emphasis on Biological Sciences with emphasis on Biochemistry, Natural sciences with emphasis on Biological Sciences with emphasis on Microbiology, Agrarian Sciences with emphasis on Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries with emphasis on Soil Science and Natural sciences with emphasis on Biological Sciences with emphasis on Plant sciences. In their professional activities interacted with 33 collaborator(s) co-authorship of scientific papers. In her curriculum Ciência Vitae the most frequent terms in the context of scientific, technological and artistic-cultural output are: Rhizobium; Oxidative stress; cell metabolism; VOCs; metals; antioxidant; markers.
