She earned a PhD Fellowship from FCT to study the socio-ecological determinants of children's participation in extracurricular sports and its association with obesity levels. The PhD in Anthropology, specialization in Biological Anthropology, from University of Coimbra was concluded in 2018 with the highest grade. Since 2013, she is a member of the Research Centre for Anthropology and Health (CIAS) - Human Biology, Health & Society Group - of the Univ. of Coimbra, which main objective is the study of the determinants of health and well-being in past and living societies from a bio-cultural perspective.

As a researcher, Daniela has published several articles, has participated in several national and international scientific meetings, and is a member of national and international scientific associations in the field of obesity, physical activity and health. Additionally, she's been collaborating with several research teams in national (e.g., Center for Health Studies and Research, Univ. of Coimbra) and international universities (e.g., Loughborough University, UK). Daniela has also provided assistance in some classes in Human Ecology, where she taught graduate students how to collect samples for genetic analysis, including genotyping, and body mass and fat measurements using bio-impedance.
