About

Fernanda Cássio is a Full Professor at Universidade do Minho in Portugal. Her research primarily focuses on the ecological impacts of invasive species in freshwater ecosystems, microbial interactions, and the effects of environmental changes on aquatic fungi. Recent publications include studies on the dynamics of invasive crayfish, the influence of microplastics and silver nanoparticles on food chains, and the ecological effects of fungicide use. She is also investigating the long-term impacts of pharmaceuticals on freshwater organisms.
