Bachelor's of Science in Biochemistry at the Federal University of São João Del-Rei. I did my master's degree and my PhD in biochemistry at the University of São Paulo in the lab of Prof. Claudio M. Costa Neto, where we studied the function, signal transduction and structure of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). During the PhD, I did a full year internship in the laboratory of the Prof. Michel Bouvier at the University of Montreal in Canada, where I worked on the development and characterization of BRET biosensors in order to study the role of membrane micro domains as "lipid rafts" in the GPCR signal transduction.

The G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily mediates the majority of the physiological processes and is target for approximately 40% of the drugs currently in the market. Despite the recent advances in the study of GPCR signaling, the role of lipid rafts in GPCRs signaling regulation is still not defined, probably due to the lack of accurate enough technologies to study lipid rafts …
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are integral membrane proteins characterized by bearing seven transmembrane (TM) ±-helices, and for that they are also called 7TM receptors. This receptor superfamily mediates a large number of physiological processes and is target for approximately 40% of all drugs in the market. The angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor is the major player of the renin…
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are integral membrane proteins characterized by a topology of seven transmembrane ±-helices that mediate a large number of physiological processes after binding of a wide range of ligands. It has been shown that during signal transduction, dynamic changes can occur in the localization of receptor and effectors in plasma membrane microdomains and intrace…
