Bachelor in Biomedical Sciences by Federal University of Sao Paulo (UNIFESP) with qualification in Human and Medical Genetics. Has developed her project of Scientific Initiation, with FAPESP scholarship, in the area of central nervous system tumors by the Genetics Laboratory of the Pediatric Oncology Institute-GRAACC/UNIFESP. Had her Master Degree in Cancer Genetics by the Postgraduate Program in Structural and Functional Biology at UNIFESP and developed her research project investigating genetic alterations in childhood and adolescence ependymomas and gliomas using the next-generation sequencing strategy. Currently, is a PhD student at the Genetics Laboratory - Biosciences Institute of the University of São Paulo (IB-USP). Is developing her research project at the Human Genome and Stem Cell Research Center, investigating the genetic and pathological aspects of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in patients with Duchenne/Becker muscular dystrophy.

Dystrophinopathies are neuromuscular diseases caused by pathogenic variants in DMD gene, and comprised, mostly, by Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) and Becker Muscular Dystrophy (BMD). Three independent, tissue-specific promoters, located at the 5' end of DMD gene, are responsible for the production of the long dystrophin isoforms (Dp427m, Dp427p and Dp427c), while four internal promoter…
Central nervous system (CNS) tumors represent the most common tumors in childhood and adolescence and neuroepithelial tumors are the most frequent, which includes ependymomas (EPN) and gliomas. The ability to analyze tissues on a genomic scale has changed the understanding of childhood and adolescence CNS tumors, as until recently they were seen only as unique identities. These tumors sta…
Central Nervous System (CNS) tumors in children represent the most common neoplasia of childhood and adolescence. The ability to analyze tissues on a genomic scale modified the understanding of these tumors and allowed the identification of several subgroups. According to the new classification of brain tumors, established by the World Health Organization, the diagnosis is based on the hi…
