Laura Maria Alcântara completed the Ph.D from Universidade Estadual de Campinas, UNICAMP, in 2017. She has published 12 articles in peer-reviewed journals and 2 book chapters, accumulating more than 290 citations to the date (h index = 9). The main research developed by L. M. Alcântara is in the fields of Microbiology and Parasitology. During her Ph.D and Postdoctoral training, her main activities have been focused on the establishment of in vitro infection models and high-content infection assays. She has performed multiple large-scale screenings with libraries of compounds/natural products, and drug combination/repurposing screenings. L. M. Alcântara worked as a MSCA Postdoctoral researcher (Marie Sklodowska-Curie fellowship), at the RNA & Infection laboratory (CNC/CIBB, University of Coimbra, Portugal), under the supervision of Dr. Ana Eulalio (2020 - 2022). Her studies are focused on drug/functional screenings and host-pathogen interactions, particularly in infection with Staphylococcus aureus.
