Dear Lorenza,
Please divulge this message amongst “tick and tick-borne disease”
scientific community:
“It saddens us deeply to announce the death of our dear friend and
colleague, Margarida Santos-Silva.
Margarida dedicated her professional life to the study of ticks
and tick-borne diseases in Portugal. Her scientific contribution is
essential for anyone wishing to better understand ticks of the Old World.
Her passion, determination and love for new challenges were at
the core of the large national and international network of scientists that
decided to work with her. Collaborators rapidly became long term friends
because of Margarida’s unselfish personality and her indestructible
optimism.
Everyone who visited her at the Instituto Nacional de Saúde Dr.
Ricardo Jorge in Águas de Moura and at her home will never forget her
generous hospitality.
Her friends know that, while facing illness, Margarida drew her
strength and courage from her wonderful family. We extend to her husband,
Alexandre, and her two daughters, Raquel and Sofia, our heartfelt
condolences.”
Com os melhores cumprimentos,
*Ana Sofia Pereira dos Santos, PhD*
