About

Maria João Sousa is an Associate Professor at the University of Minho, Portugal. Her research focuses on yeast cell death, antifungal strategies against resistant Candida species, and the anticancer activities of various compounds, particularly benzo[a]phenoxazines. Additionally, she explores the biotechnological potential of non-conventional yeast species and their fermentation characteristics linked to wine aroma.
