She obtained her PhD in Biological Sciences and specialized in Genetic, Genomic and Evolution in 2022 from the University of Algarve. Her PhD was focused on the study of evolution of the immune system in Antarctic Notothenioids under cold-extreme environment. She worked in several projects related to several fields namely microbiology, immunohistochemistry, transcriptomics, metagenomics and proteomics in Department of Biological Engineering at the University of Minho and Centre for Marine Sciences (CCMAR) at the University of Algarve. Currently, she works on marine ecotoxicology in BiDiRisk project under supervision of Doctor Nélia C. Mestre. Cármen S. V. Sousa is identifying protein biomarker candidates after metal exposures to evaluate the ecotoxicity in deep-sea invertebrate species from chemosynthetic ecosystems under deep-sea mining scenario.
