PhD in Network Science, Network Science Institute - Northeastern University, London, 2027 (expected)
MSc in Physics/Physics Engineering, Instituto Superior Técnico, Lisbon, 2023 (Grade: 17/20)
BSc in Physics/Physics Engineering, Instituto Superior Técnico, Lisbon, 2021 (Grade: 16/20)
Secundary Studies, Escola Secundária de Vila Pouca de Aguiar, Vila Pouca de Aguiar, 2017 (Grade: 19/20)
- National Exams: Physics and Chemistry - 190/200, Mathematics - 200/200

2022-2023: Master thesis, IST, Lisbon
- Project supervisors: F. L. Pinheiro and I. P. Lopes
- In this work, we tried to understand how fast and to what extent individual rewiring preferences bridge initially weakly connected communities and how likely it is for them to reach a consensus, in a context of complex information diffusion.
2021-2022: Research intern, CeFEMA-LaPMET, Lisbon
- Project supervisors: M. Gonçalves, E. Castro and P. Ribeiro
- In this internship, we explored the topological properties of one-dimensional quasiperiodic structures. The research work is summarized in the following recommendation letter.
2019: Research intern, LIP, Lisbon
- Project supervisors: M. Araújo, P. Faccioli and J. Seixas
- In this internship, we measured the polarization of prompt J/ψ mesons in proton-proton collisions at √s = 8 TeV, using a dimuon data sample collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC. The project culminated in a public presentation and lead to the writing of a working paper.
