About Catarina I was a scientist for many years (immunology/autoimmunity) at Oxford University until I decided to move into scientific journalism and public understanding of science. I am still an academic at Oxford, write about any bio-related science and am involved in a project to increase the visibility of Portuguese science so a lot of Portuguese research in my pieces. Then again I 'm interested in many other things like literature, art and politics and a closet anarchist.

So at the present visiting Academic in Scientific Journalism at Linacre College, University of Oxford
and working with the National Agency for Science and Tecnology Culture in Portugal. Before a masters in science communication, a DPhil in Immunology and a degree in plant biology and immunology between Moscow and Portugal, watching world history live and at the reach of one's hand.
