PhD Pharmacist | Scientific & Regulatory Writer | Pharmaceutical R&D Expert

Profile Summary

I am a Pharmacist with a PhD in Sciences Applied to Health Products (UFF) and a Master’s degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences (UFRJ), combining over 28 years of experience across academia and the pharmaceutical industry. My expertise lies in scientific and regulatory writing, pharmaceutical R&D, and quality and compliance systems. Throughout my career, I have held leadership roles as a professor and academic coordinator, teaching undergraduate and technical-level programs in Pharmacy, Nutrition, and related health sciences. In the industrial setting, I have led projects in formulation development, nanotechnology, drug delivery systems, analytical method validation, and regulatory affairs. I have authored and reviewed comprehensive regulatory dossiers for drug registration, post-approval variations, and compliance with Brazilian Health Regulatory Agency (ANVISA) standards. Currently, I serve as a Galenic Development Analyst at the National Institute for Quality Control in Health (INCQS/FIOCRUZ), and I collaborate on research initiatives focused on biopolymers and nanotechnology applied to health products. I am a proactive, results-driven professional with a strong passion for scientific innovation, medical and regulatory writing, and knowledge transfer. I am open to new freelance opportunities in medical writing, regulatory consulting, formulation science, and technical content development.
