Currently a Junior Researcher at CCMAR – Centre of Marine Sciences (University of Algarve) under the FCT CEEC Individual program, developing research in accessible biosensing technologies and embedded instrumentation. My scientific background combines electronics, materials science, and biological systems, with contributions to bioelectronic interfaces, impedance spectroscopy, low-noise electrophysiology, and plant sensing technologies. I have authored and co-authored peer-reviewed scientific publications, participated in international conferences, mentored students from secondary education up to PhD level, contributed to science outreach activities, and served as a reviewer for international scientific journals. I am also actively involved in teaching, scientific communication, and interdisciplinary collaboration across engineering and life sciences.
