Pharmacist · Clinical Research & Pharmacovigilance Analyst · transitioning into Health Data Science
📍 Anápolis, Brazil · 🌍 Open to remote & international relocation · 🗣️ English · Español · Português
I am a pharmacist and clinical researcher with 4+ years leading applied research in pharmacovigilance, biostatistics, and computational pharmaceutical analysis, now expanding into health data science. I co-authored two peer-reviewed publications (one in an Elsevier journal), designed and ran ethics-approved clinical studies, and I build software that turns clinical evidence into auditable, reproducible tools.
I care about patient safety, scientific honesty, and reproducibility — and about closing the gap between published pharmacovigilance evidence and the software used at the point of care.
SeniorRx Monitor operationalizes, as tested and auditable software, the kind of pharmacovigilance study I published in 2020: it detects Potentially Inappropriate Medications (PIM), polypharmacy, and drug–drug interactions in older adults using the 2023 AGS Beers Criteria® and WHO ATC / ICD-10 coding. Clean architecture, a validated clinical rule engine, a FastAPI + PostgreSQL + Streamlit stack orchestrated with Docker, hardened security, and a reproducible R/Quarto epidemiological report.
In other words: my GitHub flagship implements my own peer-reviewed research on polypharmacy and PIM in the elderly.
