After finishing my degree in Applied Chemistry and got a research grant in Organic Synthesis at FCT-UNL, I felt the need to deepen my knowledge in this area.

I chose the MSc in Bioorganic to have the tools that lacked in my learning in order to grow as a scientist and as a person. I had contact with different areas in great development such as Medicinal Chemistry, Computational Chemistry and Catalysis. These allowed me to consolidate all the learning acquired earlier and apply it in the future. 

In 2012 I started working in the pharmaceutical industry Lusomedicamenta, in Portugal, where I'm having the opportunity to apply my knowledge of chemistry and learning how a company this size works. My main objective is to grow inside the company and be able to follow Drug Investigation.

For those who want to pursue this career, this master is undoubtedly a great choice.
