Postdoctoral Research Fellow at UAB Heersink School of Medicine (United States). Ph.D. in Science, with an emphasis in Human Physiology, at the Institute of Biomedical Sciences of the University of São Paulo with fellowship period in Deutsches Institut für Ernährungsforschung - DIFE - Leibniz Gemeinschaft (Germany) funded by CAPES by the PDSE program; Master in Sports Science at the Federal University of Triangulo Mineiro (Research area: Biodynamics); Graduated in Physical Education (Sports Science) at the Federal University of Piauí. Research Subject: Neuroscience, Exercise, Nutritional Biochemistry and Metabolism. Studying morphological, molecular and bioenergetic adaptations provoked by nutritional interventions and physical exercise in experimental models of neurodegenerative diseases. Works with a focus on neuroprotection, changes in cerebral energy metabolism, and the central regulation of metabolism in neurodegeneration.
