Sandra Pereira graduated in Biology (Faculty of Sciences, University of Porto) and holds a MSc in Environmental Contamination and Toxicology (ICBAS, University of Porto). Since her master’s degree, she has been working with cyanobacteria, studying their association with marine sponges, and later the toxicity of cyanobacterial blooms in freshwater systems. Currently, she is a PhD student in Marine Biotechnology and Aquaculture doctoral program (Faculty of Sciences, University of Porto). Her present work is focused on exploring the potential of cyanobacteria for natural products, that can prevent the adhesion of marine biofouling organisms (under the NASCEM project).
