About Débora Moreira

I define myself as hard working, creative, professional but also passionate for what I do. I am graduated in Bioengineering with the minor in Molecular Biotechnology. This degree gave me the skills of an engineer with the ability to understanding and relative distinct areas. During my education, I had the opportunity to live abroad through ERASMUS+ program and I was an active member of a European student organization, BEST. These experiences gave me differentiating personal skills and several important soft skills. Professionally, I have research experiences and industry experience (as a consultant and quality assurance analyst). My interests are health, nanotechnology, regenerative medicine and neurology, namely neurodegenerative diseases. Throughout my career I developed skills such as teamwork, problem-solving, attention to detail, critical thinking and much more. At this moment, I am looking for an opportunity that will allow me not only to grow in the area of technology innovation, but also grow at personal and professional level. I intend to develop an international, entrepreneurial and prosperous career.

    Master Thesis Student
    I3S - Instituto De Investigação E Inovação Em Saúde Feb 2017 - Jan 2018
    Porto E Região, Portugal
    Master thesis in “Nanobiomaterials For Targeted Therapies” research group. I have worked with the goal to develop and implement an innovative dynamic in vitro model of the blood-brain barrier in stroke. The final aim of the model was to quantify the crossing of nanoparticles (dendrimers) through the barrier and determine the possible toxicity they could cause on the cells. As a control, a static model of blood-brain barrier was also implemented using Transwell“. The results of the thesis were published in the Journal of Controlled Release.Developed lab techiniques:- Cell culture (cell line and primary cells)- Immunocytochemistry- Confocal imaging- Spectrophotometry- Transendothelial Electrical Resistance (TEER)Final Grade: 19/20

    Collaborator/researcher in the project “Effects of low-frequency sound irradiation in tissues”, held byFaculty of Engineering and ICBAS (Instituto de Ciências Biomédicas Abel Salazar) both of University ofPorto. In this project I prepared tissue samples (Sirius Red histological staining) from rodents after noise exposure, with or without stress inhibitors. The samples were analysed through optical microscopy. The differences between groups where quantified by image quantification using Image J software. In this project, I have developed image analysis and quantification skills.Developed lab techniques:- Histological staining- Optical microscopy- Image analisys- Image quantification
