Career Trajectory
Bio
My degree was obtained in 2004 in Chemistry-Biochemistry branch at Instituto Superior Técnico. From 2004-2008 I was a PhD student at the Biological Sciences Research Group (at IST) in which i have worked on the exploitation of OMICS approaches to study Saccharomyces cerevisae responses to weak acids used as food preservatives. From 2008-2011 I was a post-doc at the BSRG laboratory with a working programme dedicated to the elucidation of microbial responses to stress exploiting genome-wide analyses. Since November 2011 I am an Assistant Professor from the Department of Bioengineering at Instituto Superior Técnico. My research interests are focused on:
i) Gene and genomic regulation in Saccharomyces cerevisae, Candida glabrata and Candida albicans; ii) Study of molecular mechanisms underlying pathogenesis of Candida glabrata and Candida albicans; iii) Epidemiology of invasive fungal infections; iv) Development of molecular-based diagnosis tools for the early detection of invasive infections caused by C. glabrata and C. albicans; v) Exploitation of Saccharomyces cerevisae as a cell factory for the production of add-value chemicals exploring systems- and synthetic biology-based approaches.
