About the speaker:
Adjunct Professor of the Department of Pharmaceutical Products of the Faculty of Pharmacy of the Federal University of Minas Gerais. Currently, he develops research projects related to the application of computational techniques to design drug candidates for the treatment of infectious and parasitic diseases and chronic diseases such as cancer and inflammation. He focuses on employing quantitative structure-activity relationship models (QSAR), 2D and 3D similarity models, machine learning, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics. In 2022, he was a visiting researcher at the University of Tübingen, Germany. He completed a postdoctoral internship at the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences at USP working with rational design of drugs that act on epigenetic targets for two years (2013-2015).
He has Master's and PhD degrees in Science/Technology in Chemistry (2009 and 2013, respectively) from UFABC, having developed research projects related to the application of planning strategies for bioactive substances based on the structure of the ligand and receptor to develop PPAR delta receptor ligands as candidates to the treatment of metabolic diseases. Bachelor in Pharmacy and specialist in Drugs and Medicines (2007) from the University of Grande ABC. He worked for 10 years in the pharmaceutical market and more than 6 years teaching pharmacy and biological sciences at technical and higher levels
