Curriculum Vitae

Inês Maria dos Santos Guerra

Inês M.S. Guerra holds a Bachelor Degree in Biochemistry (2018) and Master in Biochemistry with a minor in Clinical Biochemistry (2021) by University of Aveiro. During her Master thesis, Inês M. S. Guerra studied the variations in the plasma fatty acid and phospholipid profiles of phenylketonuric children. Presently, she is a second year PhD student (2021.04754.BD) at Lipidomic Laboratory, Mass Spectrometry Centre of University of Aveiro (http://lipidomics.web.ua.pt/). Her current research has been concerned with applications of mass spectrometry-based lipidomics approaches (GC-MS and LC-MS) for the study of the alterations in the lipidome associated to fatty acid ß-oxidation disorders, an inborn error of metabolism. She is author/co-author of 3 articles and 5 poster communications, 2 oral communication and received 4 awards and/or honours. She has been conducted research work in the field of structural characterization of lipids, from different matrices (human cells and biofluids), using lipidomics approaches.
