BSc and BEd in Biological sciences (Pontifical Catholic University of Sao Paulo), MSc in Pharmacology (State University of Campinas) with a period abroad at Oklahoma State University (Tulsa, OK, USA). Currently, she is a PhD Student in Pharmacology at State University of Campinas and expent a period abroad at University of Strathclyde (Glasgow, UK) and at University of Cambridge (Cambridge, UK). Her work involves toxinology, pharmacology and physiology of neuromuscular and neuroeffector junctions using functional approaches, molecular biology, biochemistry, multicellular (intra- and extracellular recordings) and whole-cell patch-clamp electrophysiology, histological and immunohistochemistry analysis and calcium imaging.

In addition to local effects, scorpion envenomation produces systemic effects predominantly related to massive neurotransmitter release from central and peripheral nervous system. This neurotoxic activity has been attributed to venom-containing peptides that have great specificity and affinity to ion channels, resulting in activation, inactivation, blockade or alterations of its opening/c…
Bothropic snake venoms are a complex mixture of substances with different properties (mainly proteolytic, hemorrhagic and coagulant) that exert local action producing intense pain, edema, hemorrhage and necrosis, associated with systemic damage as coagulopathy, systemic bleeding and renal failure. Bothrops fonsecai, inhabits a limited area of Araucaria forest (Araucaria augustifolia) in A…
Scorpion envenomation produces local effects at the site of envenomation that can turn into systemic effects predominantly related to massive neurotransmitter release from central and peripheral nervous system. This neurotoxic activity has been attributed to neurotoxic peptides present in theses venoms that have great specificity and affinity for ion channels. Scorpion neurotoxins have be…
Bothrops sp. snake venoms cause an extensive local damage such as pain, edema, hemorrhage and necrosis, associated with systemic damage as coagulopathies systemic hemorrhage and renal failure. In Brazil, these cases are treated with serotherapy by commercial bothropic antivenom that consists in antivenom obtained by horse hyperimmunization with Bothrops snake venoms. Although not present …
