I am a scientist enthusiastically dedicated to the field of microbiology and drug discovery. I possess expertise in the isolation of marine bacteria, high-throughput screening for antibiotic discovery and the isolation of bacterial natural products.
PhD internship focused on bacteria with relevant biotechnological potential. Work focused on
identification and isolation of possible bioactive molecules produced by the bacteria.
Involved in all steps of research, from bacterial culture growth, metabolites extraction, testing of
extracts for bioactivities and dereplication of extracts and isolation and characterization of novel
natural products
ERASMUS+ internship focused on bacteria with pharmaceutically interesting potential. Work
focused on identification of possible bioactive molecules produced by the bacteria though HPLCMS.
Involved in all steps of research, from bacterial culture growth, metabolite extraction, testing of
extracts for bioactivities and dereplication of extracts.
ERASMUS+ Internship focused on analysis of bacteria isolated from marine sponges for potential
bioactivities.
Involved in bacterial culture growth, extraction of cultures and testing against a variety of
pathogenic bacteria
