Ana Reis (AR) is a researcher at REQUIMTE (UPorto) and graduated in Analytical Chemistry (1997) with MsC in Food Chemistry (2002) and PhD in Biochemistry (2006) from the University of Aveiro (UA). AR did postdoctoral work at the Mass Spectrometry Center (UA), at SIPBS (Glasgow) and LHS (Birmingham) as a Marie Curie Fellow before joining FoodPhenolab (U.Porto). AR’s expertise is the use of mass spectrometry-based approaches in the screening of lipids/metabolites in biofluids in age-related diseases. Her knowledge on the gas-phase fragmentations of oxidatively-modified lipids was recognised with the Hermann Esterbauer Award (2012) for outstanding contributions in the field of lipid peroxidation. Her current research interests are 1) membrane biophysics, on polyphenol-lipid interactions and how these modulate the biophysical properties of endothelial membranes and the activity of membrane proteins involved in glucose and lipid metabolism; 2) metabolomics, on the bioavailability of colonic (poly)phenol metabolites in T2DM and obesity; and 3) in lipidomics, on the lipid remodelling of endothelial plasma membrane in response to oxidative conditions (endotheliome). AR (co)authored 64 papers (68% in Q1 Journals) with >2000 citations (h-index 27, Scopus), 4 book chapters and delivered 23 oral communications at National and International meetings. AR is an invited assistant professor at the Faculty of Sciences (U Porto) and serves as a peer reviewer to reputable journals.
