Currently, I am a postdoctoral researcher at ACCDiS. I am working in the field of Alzheimer's disease, especially in the dysfunction of autophagy of mitochondrial (mitophagy), and also in the dysfunction of mitochondrial dynamics in a cellular model. I am interested in studying the cellular and molecular aspects of Huntington's Disease (HD) and Parkinson's Disease (PD) due to my experience in the autophagy pathway and its contribution to these diseases’ progression.In my Ph.D. thesis I learned the importance of integrating various experimental techniques and in silico data analysis as an approach to search for new biomarkers and/or therapeutic targets, associated with biological mechanisms such as mitophagy, in conditions such as Alzheimer's disease. and Down syndrome.Throughout my professional career I have attended more than 30 congresses including an International Congress and 9 scientific publications.
