I am a biologist and I have been working as researcher specializing in Molecular Biology, Microbiology and Biochemistry for over 16 years. I have experience in manipulation of DNA and RNA, PCR, qRT-PCR, eletectrophoresis, Southern and Westerbn blotting, CRISPR/cas9 genome editing, production and purification of recombinant proteins, SDS-PAGE, enzimatic activity protocols, preparation of culture media, solutions and sterilization, transformation, cultivation and propagation of filamentous fungi, yeasts and bacteria. On my last project I worked on the characterization of hydrolytic and accessory enzymes expressed in yeast for use in biotechnological processes such as the production of second generation bioethanol and bioproducts. Currently, I´m working as researcher in the Biosab leveduras startup, where we develop researcher with yeast for the brewery and distillery.Specialties: Molecular Biology, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Genetic Award: Vale S.A - Capes Science and Sustainability 2014 for the doctoral thesis - group: recycling of biomass residues. http://buscatextual.cnpq.br/buscatextual/visualizacv.do?id=K4713761D6paulagouvea@biosableveduras.com
