João André Pereira Lopes. Published 4 articles in specialized magazines. He works in the area of Basic Medicine - Biomedicine with an emphasis on Biochemistry, Molecular and Cell Biology, Developmental Biology, and Oncobiology. His curriculum includes practical research work in the field of biomedicine, namely the synthesis of photodynamic compounds with antitumor application and the study of in vivo and in vitro models in the context of the study of a congenital heart disease. Finally, he completed his BSc in Biochemistry at the University of Aveiro and MSc in Oncobiology - Molecular mechanisms of cancer, at the University of Algarve. Representative quote: "Science means constantly walking a tightrope between blind faith and curiosity; between expertise and creativity; between bias and openness; between experience and epiphany; between ambition and passion; and between arrogance and conviction; in short, between an old today and a new tomorrow" by Heinrich Rohrer
