Sara got her diploma in Environmental Health, a branch of Public Health in 2008 at theSchool of Allied Health Sciences by the Polytechnic Institute of Porto. In 2009 she moved back to her home city and enrolled in a master in Micro and Nano Technologies at the University of Minho (Portugal). From October 2010 to April 2011 Sara joined our chair as an Erasmus student,doing part of her master thesis on subject "Development of a sensoring device for environmental estrogens in wastewater". She is currently part of the InnoMedTec-Team as a PhD student, working on the topic "Photocatalytical cleaning concepts for aquatic environment contaminated with antibiotics".
