Carla Moreira was born in 1972 in Germany. She completed a Degree in Mathematics in 1996 at the University of Minho and a PhD in Statistics at the University of Vigo in 2010. Since 2009, he has carried out research into several problems in Survival Analysis, more specifically in the investigation of statistical models that accommodate double truncation such as truncated-response regression, smoothed estimation of the truncated density function, and hypothesis testing for truncated semiparametric models, with biomedical applications.

She is a Researcher at the Centre of Mathematics of the University of Minho since 2019, colaborator in SiDOR research center and in the Public Health Institute of the University of Porto, where she was an integrated member from 2016-2018. She is also Principal Investigator in the project ‘SUMcohort: Advances in Survival analysis under double truncation and Multi-State models. Software development and cohort based-studies’. His main research areas are Survival Analysis and Multi-state Models; cohort studies and computational statistics.
