Biography

Graduated in Biomedicine from the Federal University of Paraná (2011-2014), Master's (2015-2017), and Ph.D. (2017-2022) in Cellular and Molecular Biology from the Federal University of Paraná. She has experience in using the avian embryo (Gallus gallus) as a study model, with a focus on evaluating the effects of exposure to xenobiotics on embryo development. She is currently a postdoctoral fellow (CNPq), linked to the Cell and Molecular Biology Graduate Program at the Federal University of Paraná (UFPR), working in Cell Toxicology research, on the following topics: role of organic pollutants in cancer prognosis and the role of extracellular vesicles on phenotypic modulation of cancer cells by organic pollutants.
