Passionate about exploring the potential of natural products in drug discovery for neurodegenerative diseases, I investigate their interaction with amyloid aggregates using computational simulations. Currently, my focus is on searching for Brazilian natural products with promising neuroprotective properties against amyloid-induced damage. Through investigating these compounds, I aim to contribute to the development of novel disease-modifying therapeutic strategies for neurodegenerative diseases.
