Human Biology, Microbiology and Biochemistry - Science Writer and Consultant

Profile Summary

My main skills are: - literature search and synthesis; - management and analysis of large datasets; - design of experimental assays; - organization and writing of scientific papers, conference communications (oral presentations and posters), literature reviews, state-of-art documents, reports, booklets. presentations, pedagogical documentation and science communication articles and posts; - consulting skills in the scopes of microbial control, protein purification and enzymatic activity; - assertive and tailored communication style. The main areas of my activity are Human Biology (including Physiology), Microbiology and Biochemistry (namely, Protein Science), but I am happy to research and learn about other subjects. I am fluent both in Portuguese (my mother tongue) and English. I am also keen on creative writing, namely, poetry and other fictional literature.
