I got my B.Sc. and my Ph.D. degrees at the Physics Institute of the University of São Paulo, IFUSP, in the Applied Physics Department. During my Ph.D. I studied several Biophysical relevant problems such as: the importance of protein-protein interaction on the protein conformation and the drug-micelle interaction, mostly with Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) technique. You can take a look into my Ph.D. Thesis here.

My Pos-Doc was concerned in a mutual Biochemical/Biophysical approach to study a membrane protein: Na,K-ATPase. In the beginning of 2011 I got a permanent position in the General Physics Department at the Institute of Physics at USP inside the molecular Biophysics group. Nowadays, I am carrying on some research projects concerning the calculation of protein envelopes, as well as protein complexes in solution. I am also working with static fluorescence, absorbance UV-Vis, among other techniques.
