Rafael Mendes is a Junior Researcher (Doctorate) and a Teacher and Instructor at the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Porto. He possesses a BSc in Biology (UTAD), MSc in Clinical Laboratory Biology (UTAD), a Ph.D. in Biology (UP), and an Instructor license in Biology. In the last 5 years, he carried out his research work in the area of plant and microbial cellular and molecular biology, sustainable measures, and mitigation of climate change impacts within the scope of his Ph.D. thesis entitled "Genotypic and phenotypic profiles of Erwinia amylovora isolates associated with fire blight outbreaks in Portugal, and their susceptibility to antimicrobial peptides", and in the three research contracts in international, national and co-promotion projects dedicated to plant pests and diseases, and precise agriculture. He is currently an associated member of LAQV-REQUIMTE, and a contributor to CIBIO-InBIO (BIOPOLIS association). He teaches classes on the microbiology and molecular biology field to different bachelor's and master’s degrees, and advanced formation degrees at FCUP. He masters microbiology and cell biology techniques (e.g., cell labeling by fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry), and functional analysis (e.g., carbon metabolism). He is an expert in molecular, cellular, and functional studies in microbial and plant models (e.g., plant-pathogen interactions, microbiomes). In the last 5 years, he has been (co)author (main, group leader, co-author, corresponding author) of 24 international WoS articles (majority Q1), H-index of 7, 193 citations, and 3 national technical-scientific dissemination articles. He is currently the main author of a comprehensive review on Erwinia amylovora ecology, genetics and sustainable measures with an international specialist in the pathogen. Since his doctorate, he has established his two teams in pathosystems (from cell to pathosystem) and precise agriculture. He has also supervised several bachelor's and master's students, scholarship holders, and a technician, and is the tutor of 4 PhD students and mentor of 2 PhD students (one in Erwinia amylovora). Guest editor of 2 international Q1 scientific journals, "Horticulturae" and “Frontiers in Microbiology”, respectively. Guest reviewer of 48 international articles. He is a member of the MiCropBiomes COST Action, and of 6 current and one past I&D national (4), international (1), and co-promotion projects (1), namely, BioFago, KiwiBol DrosuGreen, STOP.SUZUKII (this last, the Task Leader of tasks 1, and 5 at FCUP), OmicBots (co-Task Leader of task 2 at FCUP), and VineProtect (co-coordinator of the consortium outputs), highlighting his vast (inter)national scientific network. He has also vast experience in science communication and dissemination, having organized 13 national and international conferences and workshops so far. During and after his training, he participated in scientific communications at several national and international scientific congresses (>35).
