Joana Godinho Pereira, is a Fellow Researcher at Neurovascular Laboratory at Faculty of Pharmacy of University of Lisbon and affiliated to i.MedU.Lisboa - Research Institute for Medicines. Born in 1989, has graduated in Cellular and Molecular Biology (2010) and completed her master degree in Molecular Biology and Genetics (2013). Godinho-Pereira research has been focused on the understanding of cellular and molecular mechanisms, particularly from age-related and chronic diseases (Parkinson´s disease, Cardiovascular disease, Cystic Fibrosis), to further accomplish prevention and/or treatment for those pathologies. The worked developed within this projects resulted in 6 published articles, and 3 poster communication. In 2019, Joana started as a fellow researcher at Neurovascular Laboratory, and later that year enrolled PhD in Pharmacy, after being awarded a scholarship from the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT). Her research is focosed on breast cancer brain metastasization, specifically on the interplay between triple-negative breast cancer cells and blood-brain barrier during extravasation process, with the aim to identify biomarkers and targets, that could be further modulated for either a preventive or treatment approach. Throughout the research experiment Joana was trained as a cellular and molecular biologist, with expertise ranging from molecular biology, natural compound testing, development of improved cell models of brain diseases to imaging techniques. Since 2019 she published her first author paper, and 2 as co-first author, 18 poster (7 as first author, and 11 as co-author), 9 oral communications (4 as presenter, and 5 as author) in national and international meetings. At this moment, Joana was awarded with 3 prizes/awards, and is team member of 2 scientific projects, including a Pfizer Medical Grant.
