Educator, scientist, and visionary driven by the desire to transform lives through knowledge and innovation. With over 15 years of experience, I have built a career marked by academic excellence, international experience, and a commitment to human and scientific development. I hold a degree in Chemistry from UNESP-Araraquara, a Masters and Ph.D. from USP-Ribeirão Preto, and a Postdoctoral Fellowship from USP-São Carlos.As a visiting researcher at the University of British Columbia (Canada) and Nova University of Lisbon (Portugal), I developed innovative solutions in Chemistry and presented my work at global academic events. Specialized in active teaching methodologies and lesson planning, I am passionate about fostering meaningful learning in classrooms and laboratories.I am a certified lead quality auditor (ABNT and FGV) and an experienced scientist proficient in advanced analytical techniques, including HPLC, UV-vis Spectrophotometry, Circular Dichroism, Fluorescence Spectroscopy, Langmuir Monolayer, Calorimetry (DSC), PM-IRRAS, FT-IR, Microscopy, and ELISA.Passionate about sharing knowledge and inspiring others, I strive to create educational environments that connect theory to practice. I firmly believe in the transformative power of education and research to shape a more innovative and inclusive future. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The increase in super-resistant bacteria to traditional antibiotics is a common problem nowadays mainly due to the abusive use of these drugs. Nearly 20 years ago a new class of molecules, the antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), was found to have potent microbicidal properties. The AMPs have a non-specific, fast and lethal mechanism of action against microorganisms, causing cell death by disru…
Labaditin is a cyclic decapeptide found in the latex of Jatropha multifida, Euphorbiaceae family. Some characteristics shown by this class of biomolecules are a head-tail cyclization and high hydrophobic aminoacid proportion, which favors the affinity with biological membranes. Studies demonstrated that Labaditina has inhibitory power over the activation of the classic path of the human c…
The increasing number of antibiotic-resistant bacteria calls for the development of new drugs. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have a fast and lethal mechanism of action against microorganisms. AMPs' toxicity to human cells is small because they are attracted to the bacterial surface due to electrostatic interactions. A class of cationic peptides known as "innate defence regulator (IDR)" sh…
