I have a Ph.D in Neuroscience from Federal University of Santa Catarina – UFSC – Brazil, where I studied the pharmacological activity of natural products in animal models of inflammatory and neuropathic pain. In the Cao Lab, I’m working to understand how changes of neuro-immune system interact to contribute to migraine and others chronic pain, in order to explore novel molecular and cellular targets.
