Dr. Sampaio earned her PhD in Human Geography from the University of Sussex. Her academic journey reflects a consistent focus on migration studies, particularly examining the intersection of ageing and transnational mobilities. Her research primarily investigates international migration, life course transitions, intergenerational relationships, socio-spatial inequalities, and urban displacement, with a geographical focus on Brazil and Portugal. She has developed innovative theoretical frameworks including 'work as affective care' and 'ageing strategically' to understand the complex dynamics of transnational families and older migrants. Her work often centers on the Azores archipelago as a microcosm of global migration patterns, examining diverse groups of older migrants including return, lifestyle, and ageing-in-place labor migrants. Analysis of her recent publications reveals a strong interdisciplinary approach bridging geography, sociology, anthropology, and gerontology. Her work consistently explores emotional dimensions of migration, the temporal aspects of transnational relationships, and the strategic decisions made by older migrants across the life course. A notable trend is her focus on understudied aspects of migration including the role of silence in transnational care, the experiences of undocumented family members, and the specific challenges faced by older adults in urban environments of low and middle-income countries. Dr. Sampaio has made significant contributions through her scholarly publications including two major monographs: Aspiring in Later Life. Movements across Time, Space, and Generations (2023) and Migration, Diversity and Inequality in Later Life: Ageing at a Crossroads (2022), along with numerous high-impact journal articles in leading publications such as the Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies, Journal of Rural Studies, and Global Networks. Her research has been supported through various national and international projects focusing on migration studies. As an educator, she has contributed to integrating feminist perspectives into geography curricula and has examined the challenges of teaching gender studies in the context of rising postfeminist ideologies. Her work demonstrates a commitment to understanding the complex ways in which migration, ageing, and care intersect across different spatial and temporal scales. Dr. Sampaio maintains active research collaborations across multiple institutions and countries, with particular emphasis on transnational family dynamics between Brazil and the United States, and migration patterns affecting the Portuguese islands of the Azores. Her work frequently employs ethnographic methods and in-depth life narrative interviews to capture the nuanced experiences of migrants across the life course.

Her work centers on Southeast Asian contemporary art, de-westernised histories of cinematic arts, and avant-garde legacies in Southeast Asia. She is recognized for developing decolonial methods for studying cinematic and artistic practices situated in and related to Southeast Asia, with particular focus on artists' moving image. Her major research themes intersect film and media studies, art history, curatorial practice, and area studies. Ingawanij's work creatively develops decolonial methods for studying histories and genealogies of cinematic and artistic practices. She places contemporary Southeast Asian artists' moving image in constellation with the region's itinerant film projection rituals performed as offerings to powerful spirits of local territories. Her research explores the cosmological, agential, and relational characteristics of Southeast Asian artists' moving image. Ingawanij's publications and curatorial projects reveal emerging trends in Southeast Asian artistic practices that fabulate temporally heterogeneous worlds enlivened by beings of the deep past, the undead, spirits, and mythical creatures. Her work examines how such practices entangle with failures and aftermath of the region's historical vanguardism while exploring what art can do and not-do in contemporary contexts. ArtReview's 2021 Power 100 list British Academy Mid Career Fellowship (2018-19) Leverhulme Trust Early Career Fellowship (2009-2012) Multiple British Academy and Asia-Europe Foundation grants As an academic and curator, Ingawanij prioritizes supporting creative processes of filmmakers and artists working in fragile and at-risk artistic infrastructures. She has been developing a large-scale, multi-strand research initiative on speculative practices of future-making involving film and moving image creation and circulation, with strands addressing climate change and visions of Asian film futures. She serves on the Berwick Film and Media Arts Festival Board of Trustees and regularly contributes to international academic and arts institutions. Her current major project Animistic Apparatus conceptualizes Southeast Asian artists' moving image as practices that make animistic medium within circuits of global contemporary art, exploring the entanglement of historical vanguardism and contemporary art through the lens of regional animism.
