CV Lattes
Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP). Instituto de Biologia (IB) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
PhD in Cell and Structural Biology, Institute of Biology, UNICAMP (2018). She held a doctorate sandwich at the Istituto di Ricerche Farmacologiche Mario Negri (Milan-Italy) working in the area of neurosciences with emphasis on neurodegenerative disease Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. She holds a Master's Degree in Cell and Structural Biology in the Anatomy area by the same postgraduate program (2013) and a Bachelor's degree in Biomedicine (2010) by the University Center Hermínio Ometto (FHO-UNIARARAS). She works in the area of neurosciences, with interest in neurodegenerative diseases, neuroprotection, synaptic plasticity, degeneration and regeneration processes of the nervous system, pharmacological therapies and molecular biology. She has didactic experience having taught the disciplines of Human Physiology and Histology. Currently Profa. in the disciplines of Anatomy and Physiology and Collaborating Researcher in the Master's Program in Biomedical Sciences (FHO - Uniararas). (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by selective loss of motor neurons in the spinal cord, brainstem and motor cortex. It is possible that, similar than occurs in other neurodegenerative diseases, the pathological mechanism underlying ALS is a set of cellular and biochemical alterations that ultimately trigger the degeneration of motor neurons. T…
Currently, due to the increased life span of the population, there is a growing interest in studying neurodegenerative diseases. Oxidative stress seems to be involved in the etiology of these diseases affecting neurons. The pathologies that affect motoneurons are characterized by inducing apoptosis. Thus, several studies have been conducted to investigate the effect of neuroprotective dru…
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease affecting the motor system. The cause of the disease is still unknown, but some protein mutations have been linked to the pathological process. Previously, it has been considered that immune abnormalities might contribute to the pathogenesis of disease. However, more recently it has become apparent that the immune re…
