I graduated in Biology from the University of Salamanca in 2003 with a final degree mark of 2.85 out of 4 and after one year as Erasmus student in the University of Liverpool (UK). I completed my PhD (Cum Laude) in the University of Vigo granted by the Government of Spain (FPU) in 2009. During my PhD I carried out 2 temporary stays in the University of Santiago (Chile, 2 months) and the University of Kwazulu-Natal (South Africa, 2 months). I held a two-year Postdoc in the Centre for Functional Ecology (Coimbra) funded by the Spanish Foundation Ramón Areces (2010-2012). After, I gained a grant from the Xunta de Galicia (2013-2016) to develop a second Postdoc for three years, two in the University of Toronto and one in the University of Vigo. For my second postdoc I got 3 projects as PI from different agencies to support my research. Currently, I am a postdoc in Centre for Functional Ecology (Coimbra), granted by Portuguese Foundation for the Sciences and Technology.
