Biologist with a PhD graduated from the University of São Paulo in 2016. He carried out scientific initiation and doctorate projects directly in the DNA Repair lab, of professor Dr. Carlos Frederico Martins Menck, at the University of São Paulo. He interned for two months in the Chromosome Dynamics lab, led by professor Dr. Catherine Green, at the University of Oxford (in 2015). Completed a technical course in chemistry at Escola Técnica Getúlio Vargas. Did a postdoc throughout 2024 at Washington University in Saint Louis (MO, USA) studying the replication of ovarian cancer cells after treatment with chemotherapy drugs. Post-doc in gene therapy using nanoparticles at the Institute of Energy and Nuclear Research (IPEN-USP, 2025-Current). Has experience in the field of Chemistry, developed a research project with an emphasis on IPEN-USP (2012).

Ultraviolet (UV) light is a highly carcinogenic agent to which the human is exposed, that damages the cellular components and deforms the DNA strand and can result in cell death or gene instability. The lesions formed by UV light are usually removed by the Nucleotide Excision Repair mechanism (NER). When these lesions remain until the replication, there is a process known as translesion s…
Ultraviolet light (UV) is a highly carcinogenic agent to which all living beings are exposed. When absorbed by the DNA molecule, UV-light induces mainly lesions of two types: cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPD) and pyrimidine 6-4 pyrimidone (6-4PP). These lesions distort the double helix, promoting a block to the replication and transcription of DNA, what may result in genomic instability…
