I'm in a 1 year interchange studying Molecular Biology in the University of Sheffield. My field of interest is Synthetic Biology, and both in Brazil and England I have been working in Do It Yourself Biology and the connexions between the academia and society, believing that we need to turn knowledge in practical applications that can really change the world. I played handball in different teams in the past 7 years as a goalkeeper but left the sport due to my studies. I played chess and won several tournaments. After some years away from the boards, I'm coming back to the sport in the last months. I write a book about science fiction. I'm a scientist-writer-handball-chess-player, and I think this is due to my love for life and all different experiences that it can bring.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

More than travelling to different places, this is about meeting people and experience everything that they can share. I think couchsurfing is a completely different way of travelling and a much more deep opportunity to understand a place.

兴趣

Science, sports, literature and, of course traveling. But I'm ready to start a conversation about basically any subject, so if you want to discuss about the penguin population in New Zealand, I'm ready to that.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

One amazing experience in my life was the iGEM (International Genetically Engineered Machine) competition. Thousand of young scientist really wanting to change the world and make it better.
