Biography

Diara Kady Monteiro Vieira Lopes Rocha, I was born in Cape Verde, with dual Cape Verdean and Portuguese nationality. Actually I live in Lisbon with my family. I have a degree in Biology and a PhD in Biomedical Sciences, Parasitology. I am currently working on a business project lin ked to health, but on a more commercial level. I was a researcher for several years at different national and international institutions, where I had the opportunity to fulfill various technical and scientific roles, with national and international publication ones. Since 2016, I have worked as a contracted assistant professor at the University of Cape Verde, in particular at the Faculty of Education and Sport, at the University of Mindelo and also the University of the Atlantic, which has allowed me t o develop my ability to interact with multidisciplinary teams and prepare applications for ERASMUS projects and other international projects from May 2022 to 28 February 2023, I worked at the Portuguese Institute of Oncology in Lisbon as a Research Assistant, which was a huge challenge fo r me and an opportunity to learn and experience other realities of human relations, in terms of monitoring the quality of life of cancer patients and structuring and managing a database, reporting the adverse effects of immunotherapy treatments, as well as processing clinical information. I have experience as a peer reviewer, although I currently have less time available for this type of activity as I work at a full time from Monday to Saturday, but I have accepted some challenges of this nature given my passion for science.
