• Question: you said in your 'about me' that you are an adventurer, so do you like exploring and being courageous about your work and if this is so, how?

      Yes, I would say so. That is the reason why I have worked in many different countries and tried to investigate and control different viruses and bacteria.
      I love exploring and that took me to India, where I worked investigating an outbreak of infectious diseases. Also, I worked in Brazil for almost two years, trying to unravel some of the mystery behind Zika Virus and also in Sierra Leone during the Ebola Virus Epidemic in 2015.
