Personal profile
Biography
I am a sociologist trained at the Universities of Coimbra (Portugal) and York (UK), with research focused on public participation in science and technology, the role of expertise, and the democratisation of knowledge. Much of my work examines how these dynamics unfold around pressing environmental and climate issues.
I am particularly interested in developing new ways to connect citizen participation, knowledge production, and policy implementation, with the aim of identifying innovative responses to major societal challenges.
I joined the University of Edinburgh in 2010 as Research Fellow at the ESRC Genomics Forum.
Prior to relocating to the UK, I was a Lecturer in Sociology at the University of Minho (Braga, Portugal) and a Junior Researcher at the Centre for Social Studies, University of Coimbra.
