Birthplace: Brazil

Holds a Bachelor's degree in Nursing from the Universidade Estadual do Centro-Oeste (Unicentro), where she participated as a student of Scientific Initiation of the Research Group on Chronic Diseases (GPCron) and was an effective Monitor in the discipline of Pathophysiology in the Nursing course. Under the guidance of Dr. Carine Teles Sangaleti Miyahara, she has worked with heart rate variability analysis and has integrated research projects focusing on cardiovascular disease and autonomic disorders. She is currently a PhD student in Sciences (Human Physiology) at the Universidade de São Paulo - (USP), with one of the subprojects that make up the Thematic Project entitled ?Blood-Brain Barrier A new paradigm in the treatment of Hypertension?, coordinated and directly supervised by Dr. Lisete Compagno Michelini.

Abstract
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) rigidly controls the transit of substances between the plasma and the interstitium of brain areas. Microglia do not structure the BBB, but interfere with its functioning through the synthesis of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Experimental evidence has demonstrated in chronic hypertension microglial activation and BBB dysfunction with access of angiotensin II (An…
