Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCAR). Centro de Ciências Biológicas e da Saúde (CCBS) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Ungraduated in Biotechnology Engineering from the Paulista State University Júlio de Mesquita Filho. Master's Degree in Evolution Genetics and Molecular Biology at Federal University of São Carlos. Performed an internship abroad at the University of Padua at Dr. Luca Scorrano's lab, as well as a scientific initiation project and extension projects as volunteer and scholarship holder. Has experience in embryology and molecular biology, with emphasis on the development of oocytes. Currently, PhD student at Max Planck Institute for Biology of Ageing - Germany, under supervision of Dr. Lena Pernas, where studies the role of mitochondria in the production of hormones by granulosa cells.

Mitofusins 1 (Mfn1) and 2 (MFN2) are transmembrane GTPases present in the outer mitochondrial membrane and being involved in the regulation of mitochondrial fusion. Since Mfn2 is also present in the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), it is also responsible for regulating the morphology and the interaction of ER with the mitochondrion. Thus, there are increasing evidences that Mfn…
Chimeras from in vivo fertilized cells and parthenogenetic cells have been subject of study to the use on the biotechnology of reproduction. Mouse parthenotes do not undergo a full development but when they are aggregated with fertilized embryos the development is feasible. However, the parthenogenetic cells actively affect the development and the growth of the embryo and the future newbo…
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a dynamic organelle responsible for the synthesis, modification, folding and transport of secretory and membrane proteins, as well as a storage of Ca2+ and lipid biosynthesis. In addition, the ER has contact sites with the outer mitochondrial membrane (mitochondrial-associated membranes, MAM), which is of great importance for regulation of lipid metabolis…
