PhD in Computer Science from the University of Manchester, UK (1983). Since 2012, he has been a Full Professor in the Department of Computer Science (DCC) at the University of Porto School of Sciences (FCUP). He was Vice-Rector of the University of Porto with responsibility for the Digital University, Quality and Continuous Improvement. In 2007, he founded and led CRACS, an FCT unit rated Very Good, until 2018, becoming an integrated unit of INESC TEC in 2014. He has led the Authenticus project since 2010.

She has a Bachelor’s degree in Biology from the University of Porto School of Sciences. As science communication and dissemination is one of her main interests, she has been working on a number of projects in this area since 2008, at institutions such as the University of Porto, the Porto Social Foundation, CIBIO-InBIO and, currently, at the University of Porto Museum of Natural History and Science.

She has been a researcher at CIBIO-InBIO since 2004. With a PhD in Biology from the University of Porto in 2011, she has been carrying out scientific and human training work in the PALOP since 2006. In addition to having published more than 30 articles in indexed journals, she has produced and participated in various science dissemination activities, such as documentaries and books. She embraced this project because she believes in the power of communication combined with scientific accuracy.
