M. Gabriela Almeida received her undergraduate education in Chemistry at Universidade de Lisboa and a MSc. degree in Biotechnology from Universidade Técnica de Lisboa. She completed her Doctoral studies in 2003, at Universidade Nova de Lisboa. Gabriela Almeida is Associated Professor at Instituto Universitário Egas Moniz, Researcher at CiiEM and UCIBIO where she is the head of the GB2 - Group of Biomarkers and Biosensors (http://gb29.webnode.pt/). She has 25 years of experience in higher education at several academic institutions, including Universidade do Algarve, Universidade Nova de Lisboa and Instituto Universitário Egas Moniz. From 2008 to 2012, M.G. Almeida was a Senior Research Fellow at the Chemistry Dept., Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia, Universidade Nova de Lisboa, under the scope of Programa Ciência2007. Her main research interests are focused on the development of point-of-care tests based on electrochemical and optical biosensors. The major achievement delivered by Dr. Almeida’s research group is the construction of an enzyme-based electrochemical biosensor for nitrite quantification in physiological, food, and environmental samples; the technology is about to reach the markets of IVD and water monitoring. In recent years she has been actively engaged in technology transfer, either as a consultant, evaluator (H2020, Horizon Europe), or entrepreneur (CEO and founder of NS2: https://www.nitrogensensing.com). She was a finalist in the Everis Awards 2021, a program boosting innovation and entrepreneurship. Her current areas of interest include several proteomics projects aiming at characterizing the response of microbial organisms to stress conditions. Outside the biosensor and proteomic fields, Dr. Almeida has been involved in the biochemical and structural characterization of metalloenzymes from bacterial sources.

The roles of cell-to-cell contact and antimicrobial peptides in the early death of Lachanchea thermotolerans CBS2803 during anaerobic, mixed-culture fermentations with Saccharomyces cerevisiae S101 were investigated using a commercially available, double-compartment fermentation system separated by cellulose membranes with different pore sizes, i.e. 1000 kDa for mixed- and single-culture fermentat. 2015.

  3. Cytochrome c nitrite reductase from Desulfovibrio desulfuricans ATCC 27774. The relevance of the two calcium sites in the structure of the catalytic subunit (NrfA). The gene encoding cytochrome c nitrite reductase (NrfA) from Desulfovibrio desulfuricans ATCC 27774 was sequenced and the crystal structure of the enzyme was determined to 2.3-Å resolution. In comparison with homologous structures, it presents structural differences mainly located at the regions surrounding the putative substrate inlet and product outlet, and includes a well defined second calcium. 2003.
