Master's Student, NOVA Medical School
With a degree in Biochemistry and currently pursuing a Master’s in Biochemistry and Biomedicine, I am deeply interested in the mechanisms of neurodegeneration. My current research focuses on Alzheimer’s disease, studying tau propagation via extracellular vesicles from primary mouse neurons and exploring disease-related phenotypes in hiPSC-derived neurons.
Fun Fact: I trained as a swimmer for over a decade but stopped when the first COVID-19 quarantine started. Although I never returned, I still love being in the water.
