I am a dietitian and nutritionist, doctor in Food Quality and Safety working as a postdoc at the Department of Clinical Sciences - Pediatrics. My research field is nutrition in pregnant and lactating women as well as newborn and infants. I am very interested on children eating behaviour and the promotion of healthy eating habits. I will be involved in studies with preterm infants, where the adequate nutrition plays an important role for health and development of the baby.
