Cartas com Ciência

I exchanged letters about higher education and science with two students in Portuguese-sepaking countries (one from Timor-Leste and the other from Brazil).

Since February 2022 I am also part of the funding team, responsible for preparing and submitting outreach proposals to funding agencies, companies and other institutions.
