PROFILE AND RESEARCH INTERESTS
Researcher aiming at bridging state-of-the-art plant science methodologies with applied and strategic research. A
focus is given on addressing biological and technological questions to improve economic and environmental
outcomes, maintaining a dialogue with the private sector to enable developing innovative approaches to respond to
tangible needs at national level and for cooperation with developing countries from tropical regions. Current
specific interest in strategic planning of nutrition-sensitive interventions in agriculture and processing, prizing
value-chain approaches. Experience in Agricultural Research for Development multi-stakeholder projects
coordination and Capacity Development in Europe and Africa, with an emphasis on Portuguese-speaking countries,
ultimately aim at promoting food and nutritional security. Presently, a member of the “High Level Policy Dialogue
Expert Working Group” on “Science, Technology and Innovation for Food and Nutrition Security and Sustainable
