With over 15 years of experience in agricultural research, I dedicated myself to studying the physiological quality of seeds, a passion that was reflected in my work as a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Federal University of Lavras. My professional journey is characterized by a constant pursuit of knowledge and its practical application in biotechnology and agronomy, with a particular focus on seeds. My international experience at the University of Georgia provided me with the opportunity to refine my techniques and seed testing skills, as well as gain a deep understanding of peanut cultivation. Our team implemented advanced techniques that contributed to optimizing seed growth and quality. My internship at Iowa State University broadened my field of vision, where I worked with micronutrient fertilization in important crops such as soybeans and corn. I am driven by the challenge of innovation and the conviction that science is fundamental to the sustainable development of agriculture.
