I have completed my PhD in Cell Biology, working with glioma cells and studying their behavior, using cell culture, and various techniques and in vitro conditions and treatments to analyze cell responses and morphology, to study the angiogenesis response of endothelial cells in glioma, and the role of inflammatory mediators. After this, I did a post-doctoral period in Spain, where I worked with artificial skin and stem cells. I did other Postdoctoral research in Germany (DKFZ- German Centre of Research Cancer) worked with iPS cells and adoptive transfer for melanoma immunotherapy. Now I am an Associated Professor in Histology at Federal University of Santa Catarina- Brazil.
