Researcher
Raquel Nunes da Silva graduated in Biochemistry at the University of Aveiro in 2009, finishing the Master and pos-graduation in Biochemistry (Molecular Methods and Clinical Biochemistry, respectively) in 2011, where she studied the glycoxidation of phosphatidylserines and study of their role in the immune system. Then, she was awarded in 2017 with a FCT PhD fellowship to study phthalocyanine–sulfonamide conjugates – synthesis and biological activity. Since 2018, she holds a post-doc grant within the pAGE project "protein aggregation across the lifespan" (Centro-01-0145-FEDER-000003) at QOPNA&LAQV-REQUIMTE and iBiMED (University of Aveiro).
