Luciana Albuquerque completed a B.Sc. degree in Biology in 1996 at the University of Coimbra and a M.Sc. degree in Cellular and Molecular Biology in the scientific field of Microbiology in 2001 also at the University of Coimbra. In 2021 received a PhD in Biosciences in the field of specialization in Microbiology by the Department of Life Sciences of the Faculty of Science and Technology of the University of Coimbra. Since April 2002 to date hired as Superior Technician at the Center for Neuroscience and Cell Biology of the University of Coimbra, currently in the category of Superior Technician of 1st class. Responsible for organizing and maintaining the Private Collection of Microbial Cultures at the CNC Microbiology Laboratory with about 4500 cryopreserved isolates. Dedicated to the study of extreme environments, their microbial diversity and the taxonomy of extremophiles. Participated in the organization of several field research expeditions in extreme environments such as hot springs and salterns. Expert in the techniques of isolation, cultivation and conservation of microorganisms. With advanced skills in phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, genotypic, phylogenetic and genomic methodologies mandatory for the polyphasic characterization of prokaryotes. Participated in the description, classification and reclassification of more than 50 organisms distributed across the various taxonomic ranks. Collaborates with several international and national research groups. Published 54 articles in international peer-reviewed journals and 48 book chapters, 35 of which in Bergey's Manual of Systematics of Archaea and Bacteria a reference publication in prokaryotic taxonomy. (Scopus ID: 56234793100, h-index 24). Co-supervised 10 B.Sc. degree course completion and 3 master's dissertation. Participated in 8 research projects with national and international funding. Participated in the development of a patent (EP1526180). In the several participations in Scientific Congresses received 2 awards for best communication. Reviewer in 4 international peer-reviewed journals in the field of Microbiology. In 2020 and 2021 received the "Outstanding Reviewer" distinction from the reference publication in prokaryote taxonomy, the International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology (IJSEM), distinction awarded by Microbiology Society.
