Past Members
Gabriel Serafim
Gabriel did his MSc on the antimicrobial mechanism of dendrimer nanoparticles, also supervised by Vasco Bonifácio from Instituto Superior Técnico
Ana Catarina Narciso
Catarina was a Master's student in collaboration with the Federico Herrera Lab, with focus on the characterization of protein complementation.
Robin Heiringhoff
Robin did an ERASMUS internship at the lab, at the end of his graduation from Heidelberg University. He worked on coercing AMPs to form pores in membranes.
Clément Arnarez
Clément joined the group after his PhD at the University of Groningen and a postdoctoral period at the University of Delaware. He worked on lipid-lipid and ligand-protein interactions.
Guilherme Razzera
Guilherme spent a year at the group working on protein-lipid and lipid-lipid interactions, while on a sabbatical from his duties at Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina.
Nestor Wendt
Nestor obtained his Masters' from the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. He joined the group for a project on coarse-grain cell wall modeling.
