Profile Summary

I graduated in biomedical sciences at Fluminense Federal University at Niterói, Rio de Janeiro. I did my masters at Sciences and Biotechnology at the same institution. In my masters dissertation I evaluated the effect of perillyl alcohol on glioma cell line. It allowed me to learn about cell biology and many techniques such as, electrophoresis and immunodetection assays, such as ELISA. I just finished my doctorate in Pharmaceutical Sciences at Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. My thesis evaluated the efficiency of new anticancer compounds. So, I developed knowledge in flow citometry, western blotting and qPCR.
