  • Molecular Biology

Daniela Costa graduated in 2019 in Biochemistry and in 2022 obtained her MSc degree in Molecular Genetics from the University of Minho (UM). After finishing her BSc degree, Daniela performed research in the Surgical Sciences Domain at ICVS (Life and Health Sciences Research Institute) as an internship trainee of Doctor Rute Moura. During her MSc thesis, her research focused on studying the impact of hyperglycemia in chicken embryo development, under the supervision of Dr. Rute Moura at the Life and Health Sciences Research Institute (ICVS), University of Minho. In 2023, Daniela joined the Dr. Paula Ludovico and Dr. Jorge Pedrosa research group as a research fellow at ICVS, where she is interested in studying the impact of climate on autophagy’s molecular regulation and its link to aging. She has successfully concluded the co-orientation of 3 BSc students.
