I am a Brazilian medical student, health technology enthusiast! I am currently an STDs/STIs researcher focusing on HIV self-testing diagnosis. Nowadays I am also developing a patent for a device that can relate alcohol consumption to dynamic pupilometry. I've been organizer of: TEDx FCMMG; HultPrize - United Nations South America Finals; ECEM 2018 - “National scientific meeting of medical students" witch is the largest meeting of medical students in Brazil. I’ve been a curator and had an active participation in 3 more TEDx in Belo Horizonte, Brazil. I am also a TED translator. Finally, I express my creativity by cooking some dishes of my own, (check it on instagram @Bongoutbr). Moreover I am also the composer of the piano song called "étoile polaire".

Health Care technology; Social entrepreneurship; Gastronomy (Check my personal food blog @Bongoutbr); Composing and listening to music; Social activism.

After some afternoons of conflict, I realized that life is too unpredictable for us to focus our passion and will of living on a single great goal. Happiness may be found in several small things, in small personal accomplishments that can make the difference.
