NTERESTS
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 Agriculture” in EU-Africa cooperation; an European Commission initiative working on an input to a roadmap towards a jointly funded EU-Africa Research and Innovation Partnership. Also a member of the “Working Group of High Education and Research Institutes”, which assists the “Portuguese-Speaking Countries Council of Food and Nutritional Security” in implementing the national Food Security Strategies. Member of the “Portuguese Society of Horticulture” directive board, responsible for establishing linkages with societies from African Portuguese-speaking countries.
INTERESTS:
- AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH FOR DEVELOPMENT (AR4D) and innovation towards food and nutritional security and agribusiness
- COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH with African and CPLP countries RESEARCH:
- Postharvest biology and technology: fruit ripening, quality and storage - Strategic for nutrition-sensitive interventions in agriculture and processing
- Domestication and exploitation of native tropical fruits and vegetables towards food and nutritional security - Molecular, biochemical and enzymatic modifications of the plant cell wall with agronomic/industrial relevance
