Direct PhD student in the Graduate Program in Genetics and Molecular Biology at Unicamp, working in the Laboratory of Genomics and BioEnergy (LGE) at the Institute of Biology. Doctoral research funded by FAPESP, titled "Cell-free ethanol biosynthesis: a new approach for optimizing fermentation by S. cerevisiae in different biomasses." Holds a Bachelor's and Teaching Degree in Biological Sciences from the Institute of Biology (IB) at the University of Campinas (Unicamp). Conducted undergraduate research in the Laboratory of Genomics and BioEnergy (LGE), focusing on microbial genetics, at Unicamp, with a FAPESP-funded project titled "Fine-tuned regulation of genes involved in key phenotypes in S. cerevisiae for second-generation ethanol production." Was a member of the Unicamp Brazil team that competed in iGEM 2022, earning a gold medal with a project aimed at optimizing bacterial cellulose production. Has experience in genetics and microbiology, with an emphasis on synthetic biology. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Technological advances in bioethanol production have been driven by the search for renewable energies in the face of climate change, both for expanding its traditional application and for its use in advanced fuels (ethanol to jet) or in hybrid vehicles. In this scenario, other biomass sources beyond sugarcane - such as those experiencing rapid growth in the country (corn), or with enormou…
Agro-industrial residues rich in lignocellulosic material are an attractive alternative to increase the yield on bioethanol production from biomass, while decreasing the carbon footprint of the fuel production chain. Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast is the microorganism of choice for cellulosic ethanol production due to its industrial robustness and fermentative power, although it does not …
