Graduated in Biomedicine at Universidade Metodista de São Paulo (2014). Masters (2017) and Doctorate (2022) degree in Sciences at Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP) in Molecular Biology and Biochemistry with emphasis on sleep deprivation and amyloid beta metabolism. Has experience in analysis of protein expression by Western Blotting tecnique, immunoenzymatic assay (ELISA), immunofluorescence, RNA extraction and Real Time PCR, as well as with animal experimentation (mice and rats) and cell culture (continuous cell line and primary culture). Currently a FAPESP fellow in the post-doctoral category working at the UNIFESP Neurobiology Laboratory developing the project "In vitro modeling of the blood-brain barrier for studies of sporadic Alzheimer's Disease".

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a highly specialized structure composed of endothelial cells, pericytes, and astrocytes and plays crucial roles in the physiology of the central nervous system (CNS). The BBB acts through mechanisms of selective permeability, preventing the entry into the CNS of potentially neurotoxic agents and allowing the exit of molecules resulting from cellular metabo…
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease that exhibits important hallmarks as a progressive cognitive decline and the commitment of elderly people. This disease has a significant impact on the mortality rate and the global economy. Despite the efforts made by research groups around the world, the cure for AD has not yet been discovered and the scarce treatment alternatives …
Cellular prion protein (PrPC) plays several important roles in cell survival and maintenance. However, when its conformation is altered for any reason, it becomes more prone to form protein aggregates, which is a common hallmark of various neurodegenerative diseases. Given that most cases of neurodegenerative diseases are sporadic, investigation of causes that lead to protein aggregation …
