I obtained my degree in Biochemistry at Universidade de Aveiro. My MSc studies in Biochemistry were obtained at Faculty of Science, University of Porto, under the supervision of Prof. L. Saraiva, involved the molecular and pharmacological studies of the most prevalent mutant p53 forms. Currently, I'm attending the Pharmaceutical Sciences PhD in Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Porto.
