Did you know that scientists already use #virtualreality to do research? Examples ⚛️doi: 10.1021/acs.jmedchem.1c01475 ☣️doi:10.1074/jbc.RA119.012400 🔬doi: 10.1038/s41541-020-00246-8. Jonathon Gast will blow your mind with cutting-edge stories presented in his poster #ACSFall2022

Very grateful to the 10th EuChemS Chemistry Congress committee for awarding me with one of the fellowships to attend this conference. I'm so glad to be able to share my work about spirooxadiazoline oxindoles as antimalarials in an oral communication on Monday. Don't miss it!

Would you be able to do drug design without VR? Yes, it has been done for years. So what's the point? For one, working faster and saving time, reducing six to four months as Wilian Cortopassi Novartis Science (NIBR) explained at the @Discngine Labs event. bit.ly/3bHdgsq

Very happy for presenting my work about #malaria dual-stage antiplasmodial spirooxadiazoline oxindoles at 10th EuChemS Chemistry Congress #drugdiscovery session. Thank you to iMed.ULisboa Maria Santos collaborators for contributing to this work.

Amazing offer #WomeninScience from EuChemS booth at 10th EuChemS Chemistry Congress #ECC8. Looking forward to Brigitte Van Tiggelen's talk tomorrow afternoon.

I'm delighted to be awarded the EFMC grant to attend #EFMCISMC22 and #EFMCYMCS22. Don't miss my oral and poster presentations about different strategies to reactivate #p53 tumor suppressor function when it’s in different status. In countdown. See you in Nice! #medchem

Wonderful to attend #EFMCISMC22 EFMC representing #medorgchem iMed.ULisboa FFUL. It has been great to be reunited with Rui Moreira and Margarida Espadinha.

I'm very grateful for the opportunity to present Maria Santos group work recently published about the development of p53-MDMs inhibitors at #EFMCISMC22. Very nervous to be presenting among so remarkable people. #medchem #medbiochem #medorgchem #compchem

Presenting Maria Santos group and Mattia Mori approach to reactivate contact mutant #p53 at #EFMCYMCS22 EFMC EFMC Young Scientists Network. Take a look at this #compchem #medchem work and stay tuned for our following findings.

Very proud of Margarida Espadinha for being awarded EFMC Young Scientists Network EFMC #EFMCYMCS2 Public's choice. I'm very glad to have shared ideas, knowledge, and partnership during the last 5 years. Congratulations "Maninha"!

Four years ago, I did a mission at Attila Hunyadi lab Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Szeged funded by FCT - Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia Bilateral action. Going back to the University of Szeged for the European University Alliance for Global Health meeting to present part of my Ph.D. work supervised by Maria Santos has been a pretty great experience. Happy to come back!

Thrilled to announce that I’ve successfully defended my PhD!🎓 Grateful for the support of my supervisors Maria Santos and Mattia Mori. FFUL FCT - Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia

Just wrapped up the IV Bio.Natural Conference at Universidade Lusófona! 2 days of cutting-edge science on natural bioactives From marine compounds to beehive products 🐝—innovation was buzzing! Grateful to all speakers & attendees! #BioNatural2025 #NaturalProducts CBIOS

One year after completing my PhD. Not a finish line, but a transformation. From structure to ambiguity, from certainty to exploration. Growth now feels slower, deeper, and quieter. Still learning. Still evolving.

Are you passionate about natural products with therapeutic, cosmetic, or nutritional potential? The Master’s in Chemistry of Natural Bioactives at Universidade Lusófona offers advanced training in chemistry applied to natural bioactive compounds Apply now!

Proud to share that my PhD research on indole-based scaffolds to tackle cancer & malaria was featured in the Boletim Química by SPQ! Science must go beyond labs — communicating with non-experts is key to impact. #PhDResearch #ScienceCommunication #DrugDiscovery #MedChem

Arrived at the University of Macau for the 3rd International Symposium on Chinese Medicine and Natural Products!

The 3rd International Symposium on Chinese Medicine and Natural Products has started here in Macau! Excited to explore this new research area. Let’s go! #Macau #ChineseMedicine #NaturalProducts #Pharmacognosy #GlobalScience #BioNatural

Feeling grateful for the hospitality of Professor Simon Lee and his students from The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU). They made our time in Hong Kong even more special with a warm welcome and a lovely city tour. Science is about connection and this was a perfect example! #ScientificCommunity

Thank you, Professor Simon Lee and your amazing students, for the warm welcome and unforgettable city tour! Truly grateful for the hospitality and inspiring conversations!
