Graduated in 2022 with a degree in Biological Sciences (Teaching and Bachelor's Degree) from IBB, UNESP, Botucatu. Throughout her undergraduate studies, she was a PIBIC Jr. scholarship holder in 2013, working on a Junior Scientific Initiation project under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Sérgio Felisbino. In 2016, she received a PROEX scholarship and worked as a volunteer tutor at the IBB Preparatory Course. In 2017, she was awarded a PIBIC/CNPq scholarship and conducted a Scientific Initiation project under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Flávia Karina Delella. In the same year, she was also granted a FAPESP scholarship for a Scientific Initiation project, also supervised by Prof. Dr. Flávia Karina Delella. In 2021, she developed a Scientific Initiation project focused on analyzing HLA-E gene expression through a computational approach under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Erick da Cruz Castelli. In 2022, she was awarded a FAPESP scholarship, during which she continued working with Prof. Dr. Erick da Cruz Castelli, deepening the analysis of HLA-E and exploring its relationship with the MHC complex and its primary transcription patterns. In 2024, she obtained her Masters degree in the Graduate Program in Biological Sciences (Genetics), working in the field of Immunogenetics and Bioinformatics. She has knowledge of biosafety protocols in animal facilities, laboratories, and level 2 cell culture rooms. Additionally, she has experience in immunocytochemistry, preparation of histological slides, protein extraction and quantification, 2D cell culture, morphological analysis software, and basic knowledge of Python and R programming languages. She is also familiar with and has contributed to the improvement of bioinformatics analysis tools, such as the Landscape Expression Visualization Interface (Levi - Bioconductor).
