At the moment, I am a lecturer in Statistics (Professora
Auxiliar) in the department of Mathematics and Applications. Before that, I was a Lecturer in Medical Statistics in
the Department of Medicine
at Lancaster University. I had a post-doc position as Research
Associate in the same department with Professor Peter Diggle. I did my
PhD in medical statistics, in the Department of Mathematics and
Statistics at Lancaster
University on Joint Models for
Longitudinal and Time-to-Event Data, under the supervision of Professor Amanda
Chetwynd and Professor
Peter Diggle. My PhD was funded by the portuguese foundation FCT.
I've done the MSc
in Medical Statistics also at Lancaster, on survival analysis ("Risk Factors and Centre Effects in
Survival of Haemodialysis Patients") under the supervision of Professor Robin
Henderson.
I've got my first degree in Mathematics from Minho University, in
Portugal.

My research interests are in longitudinal
and survival data analysis,
mainly motivated by data from biomedical or environmental sciences.
I'm using R and C++ for my research and some of my code can be found in
software.
