Biography
Assistant Professor at the Department of Sociology at Iscte-IUL and researcher at Cies-Iscte, where I coordinate international projects and a research team studying science communication, research integrity and trust in science. I have been Visiting Scholar at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) since 2014. In 2016-18, I was Marie Curie Fellow at LSE (with Marie Curie Individual Fellowship) and Fulbright Scholar at Cornell University (New York) in 2015-16 (with a Fulbright Scholarship).
I completed my PhD in Science and Technology Studies (STS) at University College London (UCL) (2011), where I was Teaching Assistant (TA) for courses in Science Communication and Science Policy at UCL (2008-2012). I was a trainer at Esconet (European Network for Science Communication, EU funded project), training scientists how to communicate with publics (2009-12). Before my PhD, I worked for the European Commission (EC), at the DG Research, Infrastructures Unit, Brussels.
My research interests lie in: science communication, public understanding of science and trust in science, research integrity, and research methods for social sciences.
