Applied and Environmental Mycology group

Applied and Environmental Mycology group Our group aims at producing scientific knowledge which essentially highlights Ascomycota fungi biotech added-value. pathogenicity.

"It has been estimated that up to one quarter of the world’s soil biomass is of fungal origin. This comprises ~1.5 million species, with only 700 identified up to now (of which in turn 75 % belong to the Ascomycota phylum). Fungi are vital for the ecosystem functions, segregating a broad range of hydrolytic enzymes that can break down complex biopolymers and producing chemically and structurally d

iverse secondary metabolites. Fungal secondary metabolites are a virtually unlimited source of probes for fungal biology, including some signalling in cell-to-cell communication pathways which control e.g. Some fungal secondary metabolites are now clinically significant drugs."

Neste destacamos as investigadoras que foram retratadas no livro ‘Mulheres na Ciência’, organizado pelo Ciência Viva. 👩📖🧪 A terceira edição do livro é lançada hoje, com a participações de cientistas cujo trabalho notável tem sido fundamental para o progresso da ciência e a tecnologia nacionais.🙌👩‍🔬

CRISTINA SILVA PEREIRA | EU SOU BIOTECNÓLOGA MICROBIANA
“O cientista constrói pontes, num exercício constante de reinterpretação da nossa relação com a natureza. Com rigor e liberdade propõe inovação ao quebrar conceitos científicos preestabelecidos e ao definir novos. O conhecimento edificado com ética, paixão e humildade, aliado à partilha e ao ensino, extingue distâncias e é essencial para construirmos o futuro. Não quereria fazer outra coisa.”
