Bachelor’s and teaching degree in Biological Sciences (2016) and Master’s degree in Animal Science (2020) from the Federal University of Maranhão (UFMA). PhD in Biochemistry (2025) from the Federal University of Ceará (UFC). Conducts research in protein chemistry, focusing on the purification and structural–functional characterization of plant proteins, particularly lectins. Investigates the antifungal, antiviral, and antiparasitic activities of these biomolecules using in vitro, in silico, ex vivo, and proteomic approaches. His work centers on elucidating the mechanisms of action of lectins on Candida species, including cellular responses, metabolic pathways, and molecular remodeling associated with stress and resistance. Also explores the biotechnological applications of these proteins, with interest in novel antimicrobial agents, high-value biomolecules, and innovative strategies to address microbial resistance.
