Fátima Nogueira  (https://www.cienciavitae.pt/7B1B-1ABB-1A16; ORCID iD 0000-0003-0313-0778, Scopus Author Id 7006748317) is Assistant Researcher at the Medical Parasitology Unit at IHMT-NOVA. Graduated in Microbial Biology and Genetics from the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Lisbon, in 1996, she obtained a Master’s degree in Medical Parasitology at IHMT-NOVA in 2001 and a PhD in Biomedical Sciences, specialty of Medical Parasitology at the same University in 2007.

The main research interests are the research mechanisms and therapeutic targets with respect to anti-malarial drugs; the development of molecular tools for monitoring anti-malarial-resistant malaria parasites and the search for synthetic and natural compounds as potential new anti-malarials.
