Biography
I’m a curious Biomedical Scientist with a Biomedical Engineering degree from the Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia da Universidade Nova de Lisboa whose will to learn lead to a PhD in Fundamental Physics (light and matter) from the École Polytechnique of Paris and Instituto Superior Técnico, Universidade de Lisboa.
Currently lecturing at Instituto Politécnico de Setúbal in the Biomedical Science Department in the areas of Biophysics, Bioeletricity, Biomechanics, Medical Devices, Imaging and Nanotechnology.
