Writing a grant, late as always! Trying to get out of me the "desperate Associate Professor entering bankruptcy" mood...

U know what?! I noticed I was happy, not anxious, and hopefull!

WTF! 1st time in 289days

I call it "americans kicking republicans ass on an election" effect 😏 LOVE it ❤️‍🩹

🧪🔬 Polytrauma sparks systemic inflammation—but how does the immune system choose between competing signals?
In our zebrafish model, we watch immune decision-making unfold across the body, injury by injury, cell by cell.
What looks like chaos is coordination.

What a great week enjoying science in two retreats @einsteinmededu.bsky.social 🧪😍✨️

🍒 on top of the 🎂 was the extraordinary representation that de Oliveira Lab had with Maria Feliz Norberto and Cassia Michael at CMBG and Dr.Juliana Gomes and Jaewon Kim at MECCC

So proud of you all👏🏽

Bye-bye, Disney 👋

We should all give more credit to small actions. It's quite empowering!

There are simply bad days sometimes when dominoes start to fall, and you can not make it stop...

Let's leave it that way, and reboot celebrating those who preceded me, hoping for the chance of a better day tomorrow...

We're heading home after a month abroad. Contradictory feelings😔 It was good to feel safe and welcomed. It was good not to be overwhelmed with daily offenses to the scientific community. It was good not to feel a target as a scientist and as an immigrant!

Europe never felt more safe and inclusive 🤟🏼

Amazing experience at the #ECMC2025 🤗 The chemokine and cell migration community in Europe is so rich and intellectually challenging! I'm hooked!

Thrilled to have presented and shared our newest and very preliminary story on decoding neutrophil dynamics in polytraumatic injury 🔬🧪🐟

See U soon!

So ready for the 5th European Chemokine and Cell Migration Conference #ECMC2025
Eager to dig deep into chemokines and cell migration world with our #zebrafish models of systemic inflammation!

I'm truly excited for this meeting.
And Copenhagen is beautiful 😍 🤗
