Ana Sofia Sousa is a university student who graduated in Biology at the University of Coimbra in 2022, and is currently in the second year of a Master's Degree in Biomedical Research. During the 3 years of her Biology degree, she developed knowledge in several essential basic techniques for lab work, and in the last year of the degree did an internship at the (iCRB) Coimbra Institute for Clinical and Biomedical Research in the “Group of Ubiquitin Independent Proteolysis and Intercellular Communication”, with the advisor Steve Catarino. This provided her with the foundation and desire to continue her academic career in this area of study. Throughout the first year of her master's degree, she was also able to work in various laboratories in different Lab Rotations provided by the course. Most of them were also related to exosomes, highlighting NOVA Medical School, in Lisbon, in the group “Proteostasis & Proteolytic Signaling group” with the advisor João Ferreira, where the study of exosomes was being applied for the treatment of Age Macular Degeneration (AMD), and the most recent one held at UC-BIOTECH, in Cantanhede, in “Advanced Therapies Group” with advisor Arnab Banerjee, related to exosome transportation, providing her with more in-depth knowledge about exosome isolation and quantification, as well as cellular work. The thesis Project, is currently being developed in "Advanced Therapies Group" in UC-BIOTECH (CNC) focusing on the "Transport of modulated extracellular vesicles transfected with microRNAs to the heart".
