🔬 Throwback to my scientific initiation days! During my undergraduate studies in Biological Sciences at Federal University of Bahia (UFBA), I was confronted with a challenging outbreak of chlamydiosis in parrots at a wildlife screening center in Vitória da Conquista. Our mission? To establish a robust molecular diagnostic protocol suitable for a large-scale operation. Our achievements: ✅ Determined the prevalence of Chlamydiosis in parrots. ✅ Adapted an efficient, cost-effective DNA extraction method. ✅ Proposed a straightforward sample transport system using cloacal swabs. ✅ Conducted routine diagnostic tests, streamlining parrot management to curb disease transmission. 🦜🧬 #ThrowbackThursday #tbt #WildlifeConservation #biology #molecularbiology #parrots #UFBA #avian #PCR #psitacosis #chlamydiosis https://lnkd.in/d9kHwxgT

Hoje venho compartilhar minha última produção científica. Colaborei com um capítulo no livro Reverse Vaccinology: Concept, Methods and Advancment. No capítulo discutimos as principais abordagens para o desenvolvimento de vacinas baseadas em epítopos a partir de dados de proteômica. Agradeço aos professores, Thiago Castro, Sandeep Tiwari, Núbia Seyffert e Roberto Meyer pela grande oportunidade. ---------------- 💉 💊 ------------------ Today, I would like to share my latest scientific production. I participated in a chapter of the book Reverse Vaccinology: Concept, Methods and Advancement. The chapter discusses the main approaches for developing epitope-based vaccines from proteomic data.

Na última semana participei como membro da comissão organizadora do Curso de Férias em Bioinformática da UFMG 2024. Sem dúvida foi uma experiência muito engrandecedora e prazerosa! Tivemos mais de 200 inscritos, desde alunos de graduação até alunos de doutorado. Também fui o principal idealizador do Torneio Mascotes 2024, uma atividade dinâmica que certamente inspirou os inscritos a participarem ativamente do evento. Fiquei muito feliz com essa oportunidade. #extensão #ensino #bioinformática Last week, I participated as a member of the organizing committee for the UFMG 2024 Bioinformatics Summer Course. Without a doubt, it was a very uplifting and joyful experience! We had more than 200 students, from undergraduates to PhD students. I was also the leading creator of the 2024 Mascot Tournament, a dynamic activity that inspired the students to participate actively. I am thrilled with this opportunity. #bioinformatics #education #university #phd #summercourse #student #biology #illumina 🔬 ⚗ 💻

Na última semana participei do X- meeting, o principal congresso nacional em Bioinformática onde apresentei meu último artigo publicado (https://lnkd.in/dri5swHq). Neste ano o evento foi realizado em Salvador na Bahia, minha terra natal. Foi excelente rever amigos e colegas. Também estive com meu orientador, Dr. Thiago Castro, a quem sou muito grato por tantas oportunidades.💉💊🧬 Last week I was on the X-meeting, the main national conference in Bioinformatics presenting my latest published work (https://lnkd.in/dri5swHq). This year the event was held in Salvador, Bahia, my homeland. It was great to see friends and colleagues again. I was also with my supervisor, Dr. Thiago Castro, to whom I am very grateful for so many opportunities.💉💊🧬 AB3C Oficial #bioinformatics #molecularbiology #vaccine #veterinary #conference #UFMG #UFBA #microbiology #drugdiscovery #horse #genomics #omics #proteomics

Today, I am sharing my most recent publication in bioinformatics. In this work, we identified drug target and vaccine candidate proteins. We carried out virtual screening to select excellent natural compounds with the potential to contribute to developing drugs against Strangles. This is research of veterinary relevance, considering that Strangles is a widely diagnosed disease in horses. 🐴 💊 💻 💉 https://lnkd.in/dri5swHq #bioinformatics #immunoinformatics #veterinary #insilico #research #pharmaceutical #vaccine #horse #UFMG #UFBA #proteomics #genomics #omics

Being part of the 68th Brazilian Genetics Congress was a great pleasure. I had the opportunity to present one of my first works in bioinformatics and immunoinformatics, which will be published soon. Also, it was a great pleasure to share this week with my colleagues and friends from the bioinformatics postgraduate program at the Federal University of Minas Gerais. #genetics #bioinformatics #drugdiscovery #vaccines #biology #veterinary #equine
