Biosketch<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diana Carmona Fernandes was born on March 3, 1982, in Lisbon, Portugal. In 2000, she enrolled at NOVA School of Science and Technology under the graduation program in Applied Chemistry, which finished in 2007. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the same university, one year later, in 2008, she concluded her master thesis in Biotechnology under the theme \u201cOccurrence of fungi and bacteria in untreated water intended for human consumption\u201d, in a project developed at IBET \u2013 Instituto de Biologia Experimental e Tecnol\u00f3gica under the scope of an international project: \u201cDevelopment and validation of integrated drinking water treatment processes in Portugal and Norway\u201d. In 2009 she joined the Rheumatology Research Unit \u2013 JEFonseca\u00b4s Lab at iMM – Instituto de Medicina Molecular as a research fellow, and later, in 2012, started her PhD in Biomedical Sciences in the same lab under the theme \u201cCoupling of atherosclerosis progression and bone disturbances in inflammatory rheumatic diseases\u201d, and defended her thesis in February 2019. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the end of 2016, a few months after the end of the PhD fellowship, and still writing her thesis, she started working at Teatro Cam\u00f5es \u2013 OPART, E.P.E. as ticket office attendant. In mid-2017 she started a second job as project manager and data analyst at the Portuguese Society of Rheumatology. Meanwhile, in January 2017 her first son was born; in November 2019 a second boy arrive to light up his life. She is now looking forward to September 2022, when she will start a new career path in an international CRO company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Testimony<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have started my professional activity (during more than 8 years) in iMM, first as a research fellow and then for my PhD. For shure, there are a lot of great places in the world to develop a project in biomedical research, and the iMM is certainly one of them. On one hand, the proximity to the hospital opens the possibility of developing certain projects that would be impossible (or, at least, much more difficult) to develop elsewhere. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This, allied to the permanent contact with doctors, medical students, and patients, enriches the works that are developed in the institute. On the other hand, the organization of the institute, namely the availability of research support structures (with very high-quality staff and equipment), combined with the enormous spirit of mutual help that involves all those who work there, make the iMM a very special place. I will always remember with great affection the time I spent there, where I\u2019ve started a little scared and na\u00efve, just coming out of university, and from where I brought the necessary tools to enter the job market outside academia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
