Graduated in Bioprocess Engineering and Biotechnology from São Paulo State University. During my undergraduate, I was awarded a PIBIC and FAPESP scholarships, leading research in Bioengineering/Biomaterials field, which consisted in the development and characterization of natural rubber latex membranes carried with drug with a possible biomedical application. In addition, I was awarded the BEPE-FAPESP scholarship, working on the project of the development and characterization of drug loaded polymeric biomaterials grafted by gamma irradiation.

The natural rubber latex (NRL) extracted from Hevea brasiliensis is widely used in industry and has shown good results in biomedical applications. Due its biocompatibility and ability to induce angiogenesis and bone regeneration, NRL can be used as medical prosthesis and grafts. Therefore NRL can be applied as a matrix of a controlled release system, allowing drugs to reach their target a…
Sialorrhea is a disorder which can promote an increased saliva production and usually occurs along with severe neurological disorders. This disorder can be treated through administration of scopolamine, an anticholinergic agent commonly used for nausea and seasickness treatment. The best route of administration for scopolamine is the transdermal application since it minimizes the occurren…
