Biography
I was born in Porto, Portugal where I also studied for my undergraduate and masters degree. My PhD research was performed at the European Space Agency in the Netherlands and I received my degree in Astrophysics from the University of Porto in 2001. My thesis topic was stellar variability both on young and evolved stars. From 2001 to 2009 I was a post-doctoral research assistant in the Astrophysics Group. I have been a lecturer since 2009, and senior lecturer since 2018.
