Welcome to the newly arrived researchers at ISCTE-IUL
1 Scientific research is a key component of the activity of ISCTE - University Institute of Lisbon
Every year arrive in this institute several highly skilled researchers, either Portuguese or of different other nationalities. They come to work with teams of researchers at the various Research Units of ISCTE-IUL. These Research Units are, along with the Departments and Schools, the main organizational structures of the Institute. They are centres of high quality research, mostly with top FCT ratings. At this meeting, we intend to welcome the newly arrived researchers. We wish them all a very productive and pleasant living in ISCTE-IUL. We count on them to strengthen our research teams and to develop scientific research with international quality. We hope they will establish cooperative ties with their colleagues at the research units in which they are integrated and expect them to participate in innovative interdisci-
plinary initiatives with colleagues from these research units. We also hope that they can enrich the advanced training of ISCTEIUL, at the master’s and doctorate levels, and that they supervise masters and doctoral theses. We count on them to carry out research projects, attract research funds and produce relevant scientific publications. We intend that ISCTE-IUL becomes a university institute with an increasingly higher and internationalized scientific level, having at its core the advancement of knowledge and its application to education, economy and society. We are very happy that you join us in exploring the future. The ISCTE-IUL Rector’s Board

Biographical note When I started studying history in 2004, I was wondering why it was so difficult and complicated learning more about the evolution of the world from a military point of view. This question lead me to deepen my interest in the field of history and historiography dedicated to the military aspect. After having had the possibility of staying in Lisbon for one year thanks to the Erasmus Program in 2008/2009 and after having finished my Master Degree in 2011, I decided to apply for a PhD program in ISCTE-IUL, for several, different reasons, firstly because I saw how military history is an important subject in the portuguese academic community and because I knew that the PhD program offered by ISCTE-IUL was a good program. Thanks to the advices and the collaboration of the Professors of the ISCTE-IUL, I planned the work for the thesis, an interesting, innovative plan about the General-Staffs of differents, important European Countries, as Germany, United Kingdom, France and Portugal, in order to investigate from a comparative point-of-view the evolution of this capital military institution.

Soon after that, I further deepened my knowledge of gender issues in authoritarian contexts during a two year European Union-financed Master programme, during which I lived in Tunisia, Morocco and Egypt, by writing a MA dissertation focusing on the codification of the Family Code in Morocco. I continued to build on my expertise during my PhD at the University of Turin, when I examined this same topic enriching my work by making use of the tools of political science and focusing on the concept of civil society. As soon as I could, I moved to Lisbon where I’m a Post-Doctoral Fellow at CIES-IUL working on two main areas: political Islam and on how the civil society is more and more the sum of narrow interests.

Biographical note My name is Nuno and I was born and raised in Lisbon, Portugal. I have a BA in Sociology and a MSc in Economic and Sociological History. After working in the third sector at the Raxen network and in the Fundamental Rights Agency in Vienna, I returned to research for a PhD in Sociology at ISCTE-IUL. I have been interested in looking into how people construct boundaries and use them to gain purchase over institutions. As such, my main research interests have been political discourse on migrants and minorities, ethnic identities construction, modes of incorporation and cultural diversity governance. In a more theoretical strand, I’m also interested in problems of agency and structure and how to conceptualize them. In the Fundamental Rights Agency I worked with discrimination issues, particularly in the housing area. Besides eating and drinking, in my free time I enjoy reading and city hiking.

Now, I’m back at CIES-IUL to carry out my PhD, focusing on the importance of Sociology in multidisciplinary contexts (higher education programs and research projects) which reflects my own experience and newfound interest in questioning how this discipline is perceived by other areas of knowledge and how researchers from different areas collaborate.

Biographical note The attention to environmental and sustainability issues was given by my degree in Environmental Engineering at FCT-UNL and my interest in public policies came from the past period as governmental advisor. In between, I tried the consultancy sector, participating in several environmental impact studies like a lot of my colleagues. But was the experience in the public sector, supporting the decision-making process related to public goods, that made me feel real alive and being able of giving a little contribution for the transition process of the current society to a global sustainability. This experience took me to the PhD in Public Policies at ISCTE-IUL in 2011 to complement my empirical knowledge with concepts, tools and expertise in order to acquire analytical capacity in the political cycle. Now, I am developing my research project focused on environmental mainstreaming applied to climate change and its relation with renewable energies policy.

Biographical note After completing a 5-year Bachelor’s degree (“Licenciatura”) in Media Studies at the Portuguese Catholic University (UCP) of Lisbo ,I worked for some years as a technology journalist for a small content production company. Here I had the opportunity of exploring emerging issues related to networked communication such as privacy, electronic commerce social media, cybersecurity, and digital inclusion. This led me to enroll in a Master’s Programme on Communication, Culture and IT at ISCTE-IUL. My final dissertation was on Portuguese and Brazilian projects using digital technology - and specifically free software tools - for the purpose of political awareness and social transformation. My exposition to open source and free software raised my awareness concerning copyright and intellectual property. File sharing tools made possible with the arrival of the Internet are enabling new ways of producing, distributing and consuming intelectual works. As a researcher, I intend to know how users are making use of these tools to complement or replace formal means of access to knowledge and culture.

I’m a Researcher and Invited Professor at the Department of Psychology at ISCTE-IUL, where I teach master’s and doctoral courses on research methods and assessment of at-risk children. My current research focuses on the effects of maltreatment and neglect, and the mediational role of executive functions, on the pre-academic skills of at-risk preschoolers. In this project I also examine the moderating role of preschool classroom quality in the relationship between these risk factors and pre-academic skills. The project is funded by an IIF Marie Curie grant from the European Commission. Before this project, I designed and implemented a large-scale evaluation of a national policy for the Portuguese Ministry of Education and Science (Barata, Calheiros, Patrício, Graça, & Lima, 2012, http://www.gepe.min-edu.pt/np4/670. html).

In the post-doc I’ll extend this research to other contexts traditionally dominated by women or by men (tokenism contexts: women in local politics, men in nursing, and both men and women in medicine) in order to know the consequences and reactions of women in “men’s Worlds” and of men in “women’s Worlds”.

The overall subject of my research is the relation between social groups. More precisely, I have been studying efficiency and defence as underlying motives for ethnocentric social judgments and biases. My current research aims at identifying conditions under which minorities claim higher prototypicality and, thus, see themselves as active agents of social change, in different asymmetric intergroup contexts (e.g. activism, immigration, corporate mergers).

Biographical note I have always been an avid reader, especially of Psychology issues and research. After graduation, I thought about a PhD degree but decided to work “in the field� first and find my research interests. By working with vulnerable children and adolescents (and their families), I rapidly found that the various fields of child protection practice passionate me. From 2010 to present, I have been working with children and adolescents that, due to the abuse and/or neglect suffered, are living in residential care facilities. This year, I finally decided for the PhD. It has been a great challenge since I have a full time job and am a mother of a 1 year-old girl. My current research involves trying to explain the variables in the construction of self-appraisals in adolescents living in residential care, namely, the role of the relationship quality (with the staff and other institutionalized peers) and of the organizational climate in this process. I intend my PhD research to bring new knowledge and contributions to the residential care services, policies and practices, making the difference in the lives of these children and adolescents that suffered abuse and neglect.

Biographical note I graduated from the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences, at Coimbra’s University in Psychology (2005) and completed an Integrated Master Degree in Social Psychology (2007) with a research conducted under the theme of Social representations of Domestic Violence in Prison Context. Later on, I enrolled in a post-degree in Community Psychology and Child Protection, which enriched my knowledge in Community Psychology, Social Interventions Programs, assessment and intervention with children and family at risk and community intervention with stigmatized minorities. My current research, by integrating individual, contextual and societal dimension in its analysis, aims to contribute to the comprehension of the participation processes that facilitate psychological empowerment in youth from ethnic minorities. It intends to particularly a) understand the role of contextual and institutional factors that favor or inhibit political and civic participation of these young people; b) explore the political participation processes that facilitate psychological empowerment and, finally, c) integrate the results in order to provide significant implications to the design, implementation and evaluation of both policies and intervention projects that aims to promote not only civic and political participation of these young people but also their social inclusion.

Biographical note I was born in Romania and in 2002 I moved to Portugal. This migratory experience along with the multicultural environment present at the American International School where I studied for five years, encouraged me to learn more about international pathways. During the second year of my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, I started working as a research assistant in a project about multiculturalism and mental health. Quickly, my career as a research assistant evolved due to the constant interest of expanding my knowledge in this area. When I had to choose the theme for the Master’s thesis in Social and Organizational Psychology, it was quite easy to decide, because I knew I wanted something related to international pathways. Specifically, I decided to focus on expatriation, family and cross-cultural adjustment. After completing my thesis, I accepted the challenge of working as a research intern at the Center for Multicultural Mental Health Research-Harvard Medical School. This experience nourished my interest about research related to expatriation.

Social Determinants of Health, Inequalities to Access the Health Services, Vulnerable Children and Child Maltreatment, Compliance from Immigrant Children to the Health Services
Biographical note During my graduation, I’ve always been interested in the social determinants of health and in inequalities to access the health services. Afterwards, I realized the real importance of these themes during my work, as a nurse, in the Primary Health Care Services. So, when I started my Master Degree in Community Psychology and Child Protection, at ISCTE-IUL, I decided to explore the experience from immigrant people in Portugal in the surveillance´s child health services. It was developed an exploratory study about this topic, with Cape-Verdean and Brazilian immigrant mothers, in Lisbon. We identified some beliefs, attitudes and practices, from the studied populations, which influence the child´s health surveillance. We identified, also, their perceptions about barriers and facilitators to access and use the surveillance´s child health services. The analyzed data suggests a relationship between some concepts, but the content analyze realized not allow us to prove it. Thus, in my current research we pretend to revise the limitations from the previous study and developing a Grounded Theory about compliance predictors in the Surveillance´s Child Health Services, referred to Cape-Verdean and Brazilian immigrants in Portugal. This theory could, also, constitute the needs assessment from an intervention program in this area, which we pretend to implement and evaluate.

Biographical note My names is José Carlos and I was born in 1971 in Oporto, Portugal. I graduated in Anthropology at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa in 1996 and I have completed a Master degree in Anthropology at the Universidade do Minho in 2003. I have finished my PhD degree at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa in 2011. Since then I elaborated my post-doc research project concerning the help-seeking behaviour of Bulgarian minority resident in Algarve. My research interests focus on the construction of practice by individuals and by the groups. On this construction, I pay special attention to the role of representations and how they are elaborated and manipulated within the power relations in order to serve the imposition of the elite’s interests over populations and how these populations resist to this imposition and design their own ways to cope with the several problems they face (e.g., illness). Currently, I am discovering the several benefits that this perspective can bring into the world of business in the context of the internationalization of enterprises. Education PhD degree

Biographical note I’m an architect working on architectonic culture and communication. I see architecture mainly as a cultural production, which can be materialized in a wide array of forms and registers. Parallel to my practice collaborating in urban and public building projects, I’ve organized and produced several cultural events, I’m editor and writer of an independent publication and I enjoy a large interest in cinema and audiovisual production. In my current research I study the way architects have been using film and moving image devices to construct architectonic discourses. By analyzing television programs, documentaries and other filmic formats about architecture or made by architects, I attempt to understand the impact of media in architectonic production and it’s relation with the evolution of communication technology.

DINÂMIA’CET- IUL
Biographical note The theme of my PhD research is a consequence of my professional career. I have been an architectural designer since 1986, and a college educator since 1991. As a researcher, I have always tried to stretch my own perspectives about architecture. Following a Master’s degree course that started in 1994, I wrote a dissertation that arose from the realization that architecture often finds itself in a battlefield of paradoxes, as if its main task should be to conciliate concepts often considered incompatible, e.g. form x matter, essence x appearance. I intended to demonstrate that this situation, far from being a sign of irrelevance in a technological world, is what gives architecture its disciplinary core. It allows architecture to take a place in the topology of contemporary knowledge; while at the same time overcoming today’s cultural logic, based in fictional or artificial polarities. For my PhD thesis I am attempting to widen the current view of early modern architecture from Portugal, and of how it dealt with its structural and technological aspects. I would like to demonstrate that for some Portuguese architects, modern architecture was more than a decorative style, embodying a paradigm shift dictated by the use of reinforced concrete.

Biographical note My interest in technology comes from my childhood, motivated by my father which always taught me a lot about computers and electronics. Due to this interest I applied in 2007 to the Telecommunications and Computer Engineering course at ISCTE-IUL, which I successfully finished in 2010. Also in 2010 I started my MSc studies. In the first year of my Master’s I had the opportunity to participate in a research project which allowed me to visit a “The Open University” in the U.K and to participate in an international conference in Budapest (Hungary). During this first year I developed the pleasure of research. During my second year of the Master’s I developed my thesis. In this context I had the opportunity to participate in another international conference in Prague (Czech Republic). The success of my MSc thesis motivated me to follow a researcher career. I applied to an FCT PhD grant which was fortunately accepted. Now I am starting my research in the area of Ultrahigh-Speed Wireless Communications for terahertz communications. Combining transformation optics and the use of metamaterials, I intend to design novel devices suitable for this kind of communications. I hope to have a successful future here in ISCTE-IUL/IT-IUL during the coming years of my research. Education PhD degree

3.2 University residence
The ISCTE-IUL University Residence meets the accommodation needs of some of its visiting students and professors who have so far only been served by the private accommodation market all over Lisbon. Located in the 17th-century Santos-o-Novo Monastery, which is classified as a National Monument, on a small hill by the river Tagus in Lisbon’s east end, the residence has a splendid view and is a short distance from the central railway station of Santa Apolónia, the traditional neighbourhood of Alfama, downtown Lisbon, Terreiro do Paço, and the new residential, retail and service area of Parque das Nações. Since there are more applicants than vacancies, it will not be possible to provide accommodation at the hall residence for all exchange students. The criterion used is the date of arrival of the application form. WEBSITE www.iscte-iul.pt/en/servicos/residencia/residence_iscte_iul.aspx
