It was a pleasure to return to #CIFARP2025 in Ribeirão Preto, meet so may friends and present our work developed at @i3suporto.bsky.social on innovative 3D multicompartmental models for drug screening.
Excited to contribute to the launch of INCT Nanofarma, and I am looking forward to what’s ahead!

We wrapped up the year with a full day of radical fun with the team. Time to rest after a year of hard work and big wins.
Time to recharge now as next year is going to be tough, intense, and full-on. Let’s make it count.
