Undergraduate student in Science and Technology at the Federal University of ABC (UFABC, 2020 - present). Currently engaged in undergraduate scientific training with the Tauopathies Research Group at UFABC, and a CNPq scholarship recipient from 2022 to 2024. Currently a IC FAPESP scholar. Interested in the application of bioinformatics in the study of neurodegenerative diseases, as well as the use of cellular models to investigate the molecular pathways involved in protein aggregation processes in tauopathies.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease, with old age being the greatest risk factor. Its sporadic form accounts for 90% of AD cases. The cognitive decline strongly correlates with aggregated forms of TAU protein, hallmark of AD and other tauopathies. The accumulation of these aggregates could be due to defects in protein degradation mechanisms, like the protea…
Tauopathies, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), are characterized by the accumulation of intracellular hyperphosphorylated TAU protein, leading to microtubule destabilization, neuronal death and cognitive decline. Proteasome plays a central role in its degradation, with studies suggesting a ubiquitin-independent pathway, involving the HSP70/BAG2 protein complex as an efficient pathway fo…
