@KarimiLab Hi Professor, I am interested, but the LinkedIn link is broken and I am not able to send a DM. How can I connect with you?

The 30th of July is significant for me as it marks the day I became a Doctor in Science through my graduate program in Parasitic Biology at the best institute in Latin America (Fiocruz). I'm grateful for my colleagues and supervisor. Proud to be Dr. Amorim!

Today, I finished an era in my academic journey. I was the Students' Representative for more than 4 years in the Parasitic Biology Program at IOC, and it was a wonderful and challenging time: being a bridge between the coordinators and the students. What an experience I gained!

We are excited to share our latest work! We explored Brazilian Amazon samples using a technology that could improve malaria diagnostics in remote areas. Congrats to our team! Read more: https://t.co/9snlnPjchd #Science #Malaria

Honored to present my PhD research at one of Brazil’s top malariology conferences! Working with metacaspase in Plasmodium vivax and recently, Plasmodium knowlesi has been challenging yet rewarding. Proud of all we’ve achieved so far on this journey! #Malaria #Research
