Aside from my individual 2014-2018 PhD grant and the recently approved project entitled 'Battle of frequencies', I have participated in five other projects financed by the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT), three as part of the original research team. Additionally, I have received awards in recognition of my pedagogical and public outreach activities, including 'Best Story Sound/Music' at AFROPEAN platform; and the best paper presented at ICTeSSH 2021, as part of ROSSIO's research team.
