Juliana Cristina Pereira Calado

Ph.D. in Microbiology and Immunology with extensive experience in biomedical research, specializing in the discovery of bioactive compounds with antimicrobial, antiparasitic, and antitumor properties. My strong foundation in microbiology has been crucial for advancing studies on disease mechanisms and therapeutic development. Additionally, my background includes leading research on cancer cell signaling, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and metastasis, with a focus on understanding disease progression and identifying therapeutic targets. My postdoctoral training further strengthened my expertise in molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry, and cancer research. I am highly skilled in essential research techniques such as molecular analysis, cell culture, flow cytometry, and advanced microscopy. This diverse expertise allows me to contribute effectively to innovative scientific projects by applying multidisciplinary approaches to solve complex biological challenges and develop impactful therapeutic strategies.
