Bachelor's of Science in Biochemistry at the Federal University of São João Del-Rei. I completed my Master's and Ph.D. in Biochemistry at the University of São Paulo (USP), under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Claudio Miguel da Costa-Neto. My research focused on the pharmacological characterization of new ligands for G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), particularly receptors of the renin-angiotensin system. During my Ph.D., I spent a year as a visiting researcher in the laboratory of Prof. Michel Bouvier at the University of Montreal, Canada, where I developed new BRET-based biosensors to study the spatiotemporal signaling of GPCRs. I completed my postdoctoral research in the laboratory of Prof. Dr. Rita de Cassia Aleixo Tostes Passaglia at the Department of Pharmacology, FMRP/USP, where I studied the role of lipid rafts in the regulation of GPCR signal transduction. I also worked as an online tutor in the specialization course in Nutrition, Metabolism, and Exercise Physiology at FMRP/USP. Since early 2022, I have been working at the Radical Innovation Department of Eurofarma Laboratories, where I apply my expertise in Pharmacology, Biochemistry, and Physiology to contribute to the discovery and development of new pharmacological therapies.

The G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily mediates the majority of the physiological processes and is target for approximately 40% of the drugs currently in the market. Despite the recent advances in the study of GPCR signaling, the role of lipid rafts in GPCRs signaling regulation is still not defined, probably due to the lack of accurate enough technologies to study lipid rafts …
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are integral membrane proteins characterized by bearing seven transmembrane (TM) ±-helices, and for that they are also called 7TM receptors. This receptor superfamily mediates a large number of physiological processes and is target for approximately 40% of all drugs in the market. The angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor is the major player of the renin…
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are integral membrane proteins characterized by a topology of seven transmembrane ±-helices that mediate a large number of physiological processes after binding of a wide range of ligands. It has been shown that during signal transduction, dynamic changes can occur in the localization of receptor and effectors in plasma membrane microdomains and intrace…
