Short Biography

Born in 1951 in Portugal, Cristina Sernadas graduated in Mathematics at the Faculty of Sciences of Lisbon in 1973, got her PhD in Mathematics from the University of London in 1980 and obtained her agregação (habilitation) from the Technical University of Lisbon in 1988. Since 1993 she is Full Professor for Logic and Computation at the Department of Mathematics of IST of the University of Lisbon.

Her research focuses on the combination of logics, fibring and meet-combination, complexity of proofs, conservative translations and reduction, preservation properties, labelled proof theory, probability and quantum logics, categorical techniques, and abduction.
