I am an Associate Professor of Biochemistry and one of the Coordinators of the Biology Area at FAPESP and CNPq. Besides Chair of the Department of Biochemistry, I lead the Laboratory of Neuroproteomics since 2014, when I returned from Germany after a period of 2 years as Principal Investigator at LMU - Ludwig Maximilians Universität Muenchen (12-14). My expertise is mainly in mass spectrometry-based proteomics (shotgun proteomics) and systems biology in silico, employed to clinical and pre-clinical models for psychiatric disorders. I am a Biologist (03), with a PhD in Biochemistry (08) obtained at Unicamp. My postdoctoral experience was at the Max Planck Institute of Psychiatry in Germany (08-10) and at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom (10-12), where I also led the Mass Spectrometry Unit at the Cambridge Center for Neuropsychiatric Research (CCNR). At the same time, I was a consultant for Psynova Neurotech Ltd. I was Elected Affiliated Member of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences (17-21) and Affiliated Member of the Academy of Sciences of the State of São Paulo (19-23). I am also a founding member of BrProt and board member of BrMass. I was elected to the board of the Human Proteome Organization (15-17) and I have been a member of the Human Brain Proteome Project Steering Committee since 2015 and chair in 2023. I am an Associate Editor of npj Schizophrenia (Nature), member of the editorial board of 8 other scientific journals and a permanent editor of a book series entitled "Proteomics, Metabolomics, Interactomics and Systems Biology" by Springer-Nature. I gave more than 60 oral presentations at international conferences, including Plenary Speaker, Keynote Speaker and Chair. H35 (ISI) and H47 (Scholar) with over 8200 citations (Scholar).
