Vitor Cardoso is a Bohr Professor and DNRF Chair at the Niels Bohr Institute and IST Distinguished Professor at Instituto Superior T\u00e9cnico. His research interests are mainly focused on strong-gravity problems, with implications for gravitational-wave and black-hole physics, and he pioneered black hole spectroscopy. He is co-author of two books and of over 300 scientific papers. His research was recognized by the European Research Council, with three prestigious ERC Grants. He was a Research Fellow at CERN and Perimeter Institute, and a Van der Waals Professorial Chair at Amsterdam. He Chaired the IST Physics Department in 2020-2021 and the European COST Action GWverse from 2017-2021, in a network of over 500 scientists. He is a member of the Lisbon Academy of Sciences, and the 2023 ULisboa Award, the highest honour conferred by the University of Lisbon, for his \u201cextraordinary contributions to theoretical physics and for scientific progress on a global scale,\u201d The award honors one individual, portuguese or foreigner, with remarkable contributions to science and to the visibility of the country. He was awarded the \u201cOrdem de Sant\u2019Iago da Espada\u201d presidential title, for scientific achievements.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
