Rosário Domingues, CESAM researcher and Professor at the Department of Chemistry of the University of Aveiro, is featured in the editorial and on the cover of the scientific journal Metabolomics, in a special issue highlighting the international contribution of women to the development of metabolomics.

This edition, dedicated to Women in Metabolomics, brings together researchers from several countries and recognises the fundamental role they have played in advancing this scientific field. Her presence on the cover and in the editorial reflects the international recognition of Professor Rosário Domingues’ work and her continued contribution to the progress of the discipline.

This distinction further reinforces the visibility of the research carried out at CESAM and its integration into international scientific networks of excellence.

Amadeu Soares, Director of CESAM, underlines that it is with great satisfaction that he sees colleague Rosário Domingues featured on the cover and in the editorial of the journal Metabolomics, in an issue dedicated to the contribution of women to the advancement of metabolomics. This recognition adds to other recent distinctions awarded to CESAM researchers, namely those included in the book Women in Science, which have been highlighted over the past years, celebrating the role of our women scientists and reinforcing the visibility and impact of the work carried out at our Centre.

The Director of CESAM highlights that it is a particular source of pride to see so many women at CESAM in scientific leadership positions, contributing to a more diverse, inclusive, and internationally recognized science, and expresses the hope that these examples will continue to inspire new generations of women researchers. Moreover, the fact that CESAM has previously been led by a woman researcher, that the current team of Vice-Directors is entirely composed of women, and that the coordination teams of the Thematic Lines and Clusters include, out of a total of 18 members, 10 women researchers and 8 men, clearly illustrates our commitment to promoting female leadership in science.
