Resume

Since 2023 working as an Auxiliar Professor at Faculty of Physical Education and Sports (Universidade Lusófona - Centro Universitário de Lisboa), previously worked as an Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Sports Science and Physical Education (University of Coimbra). Integrated member of the research unit CIDEFES - at Universidade Lusófona. Completed her PhD in Sports Sciences at the University of Coimbra and her PhD in Adapted Physical Activities and Health at the Clermont Auvergne University (France) - Co-tutelary Scheme between institutions. Her PhD was funded by the Foundation for Science and Technology (SFRH/BD/136193/2018). Previously, completed her master's degree in Sports Training for Children and Young People in 2017, and her degree in Sports Science in 2015 at the University of Coimbra. Published 16 articles in scientific paper with peer-review. In her professional activities, she interacted with 79 collaborator(s) in co-authoring scientific works. The most frequent terms in the context of scientific production are: youth sports; growth; peak height velocity; isokinetic strength; maturation; bone health; female athlete; body composition, metabolic pathways.
