Team Members
Team
We have collaborated with several iGEM teams, sharing experiences and problems we have faced during the development of our project. In the following, we described each of our partnerships.
Instructors
Ana Paula Ulian de Araújo
University of São Paulo/USP Professor
Her areas of expertise are biochemistry, molecular biology and biophysics, with emphasis in heterologous expression, protein purification and structure characterization using circular dichroism and fluorescence. Currently, her research is focused in ribosomes inactivators protein (RIPs) and human septins. She also teaches Molecular and Cellular Biology for undergraduate and graduate courses. Ana Paula has supported the whole progress of the project, advising on circuit design and providing the infrastructure of the Biophysics group for our circuits experiments. Whenever possible, she also attended our meetings at night, being the most present instructor of our team.
Richard Charles Garratt
University of São Paulo/USP Professor
Richard Charles Garrat is high experienced in structural biology using crystallographic techniques for proteins and molecular modeling. His area of research is focused in septins, superoxide dismutases, purine rescue pathway in parasites, nuclear receptors, planning vaccines and drug design based on protein structure, protein engineering and the development of educational tools for teaching structural biology. He helped our team in circuit design, more specifically in chimerical protein study.
Advisors
Otavio Henrique Thiemann
University of São Paulo/USP Professor
His experience is based in biochemistry, with emphasis in Molecular Biology and Structural Parasites, especially Leishmania and Trypanosoma. He studies mainly Molecular Cloning, Target Validation, Structural Biology, Protein Translation, Synthesis of selenocysteine and Virus Structure. Otavio provided the infrastructure of the Laboratory of Structural Biology for our Molecular Biology experiments.
Cristina Kurachi
University of São Paulo/USP Professor
She has experience in Biophotonics area, with an emphasis on interaction of light in biological systems, optical diagnosis and photodynamic therapy applied to cancer and infected tissues. Cristina has research areas that involve the development of biomedical instrumentation and clinical protocols to apply photonic techniques. She advised us in some of the aspects of the project and provided the infrastructure of the Optics labs.
Valtencir Zucolotto
University of São Paulo/USP Professor
Valtencir Zucolotto, better known as Xuxa, works in the development and characterization of nanomaterials and biosensors for diagnosis and therapy. He also investigates the effect of these nanomaterials in humans cells and in ecologic systems.
