Universidade Brasil. Campus São Paulo (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Coordinator of the Applied Nanoscience and Plasma Technology Laboratory at Universidade Brasil. Experience in the fields of materials science and biomedical engineering with focus on the following subareas: polymers, nanocomposites and biocompatible materials. Since 2009, I work on the design, characterization and application of nanostructured materials based on polymers and carbon materials for in vitro and in vivo applications. Major experience in electrospinning for the production of polymeric nano and ultrathin fibers and in its further functionalization in order to study biological systems- biomaterials interactions.

Hydrocephalus (HCP) is an incurable medical condition that is characterized by the accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within the cranial cavity, which causes increased intracranial pressure on the brain. This condition affects people in every stage of life, from infants to elderly, and often leads to lesions in brain tissue. Due to a several impact on the patient's health and socio…
In recent years, the investigation of nanostructured materials based on polymer nanofibers/nanoparticles has presented an expressive growth, mainly for the development of miniaturized devices. The reduction of fibers' diameters to the sub-micro and nano scales is responsible for increasing the surface area and also responsible for the generation of materials with improved mechanical perfo…
Alzheimer's disease (AD), a chronic neurodegenerative disease, is the most common form of dementia and affects more than 44 million of people in the World and more than 1 million only in Brazil. The diagnosis of AD in a very early stage is extremely necessary and desirable, since it is incurable and it worsens progressively until death. In order to estimate the risk or presence of this di…
Up to the present moment, syntheses of sisal cellulose esters were explored, as well as the preparation of films (reinforced or not with sisal cellulose) from these esters. These will be the starting materials for the study that will be developed, ie, films prepared from cellulose esters [different chain lengths and degree of substitution (DS)] solutions and biocomposites-type films prepa…
