As a Master's graduate in Biochemistry (Faculty of Science and Technologies – University NOVA of Lisbon), I am deeply interested in pursuing a research career in the Organic Chemistry and Biochemistry fields. As presented in my Master’s Thesis and later works, I worked with synthetic peptides and structural changes of small peptides under various environments. I have large experience with controlled chemical synthesis and spent many hours executing solid phase peptide synthesis procedures in the laboratories of Centre for Nuclear Sciences and Technologies (C2TN) – Instituto Superior Técnico. In previous experiments I had the opportunity to work with various analytical methods, such as Circular Dichroism, Dynamic Light Scattering, Mass Spectrometry (ESI-MS), Fluorescence Microscopy, HPLC and Fluorescence Microscopy. I also had the opportunity to be introduced to cell culture proceedings and maintenance in aseptic environment and radiolabeling of small molecules and peptides with various isotopes of Gallium, Technetium and Indium. Currently, I am developing radio-labeled organic bio-conjugates for cancer imaging and theranostics on a Master’s scholarship. I now earn to raise a step forward in my work and study the interaction of proteins and organic molecules with small peptides and singular aminoacids. I have acquired great laboratorial autonomy, organization and care in my previous experience. Due to my multidisciplinary background, I have the confidence to execute experimental assays in any subject mentioned earlier. I have been praised by my superiors due to my critic spirit when analyzing experimental results, and keep daily organized reports of my experiences. In addition, I possess great computer skills, and have been recently introduced to computational chemistry tools, namely Molecular Docking and Molecular Dynamics calculations, which are both fields of great interest to myself. I have great confidence in my laboratorial skills and knowledge in Chemistry and Biochemistry subjects. While enjoying working independently as well as part of a team, I always volunteered to tutor undergraduate students or to act as a team leader if the opportunity presents itself. I strongly desire for an opportunity to carry out a Doctoral Program. I am currently in pursuit of such programs and would welcome the opportunity to further discuss my qualifications and experience during a personal interview for any interested party.
