Carla Tecelão holds a PhD in Food Engineering from ISA-UTL. Her scientific activity focuses on the valorization of marine food resources, in particular, through the assessment of their proximal composition and fatty acid profile. She is also interested in the area of science and technology/biotechnology of oils and fats, with an emphasis on the study of the oxidative stability of edible oils and on the synthesis of structured lipids, with nutraceutical properties, by enzymatic catalysis.
