Reviews

Author Information

LucianaAndrade is at Federal University de Minas Gerais, Brazil Christopher Kushmerick is a biophysicist and neurophysiologist specialized in cellular electrophysiology and synaptic transmission. He currently serves as a Professor of Pharmacology in the Department of Physiology at the Federal University of Sergipe (UFS) in Brazil, having previously held a long-term professorship at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG). His research focuses on the molecular mechanisms of neurotransmitter release and the modulation of ion channels. Key areas of investigation include short-term synaptic plasticity and neuromodulation by G-protein coupled receptors. Graduated in Medical Biology from the Faculty of Philosophy, Sciences, and Letters Barão de Mauá (1988), with a master’s degree in Immunogenetics from the Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP, 1999) and a Ph.D. in Host-Parasite Relationship Biology from the University of São Paulo (USP, 2004). She completed her postdoctoral research at the Institute of Chemistry at USP (2004-2008) and the University of Georgia, USA (2010-2011). Currently, she is an Associate Professor at UNIFESP, Diadema campus, working in the field of Protozoology of Parasites, focusing on the characterization of Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) and their mechanisms of interaction with the host. She was a board member and part of the scientific committee of the International Society for Extracellular Vesicles (ISEV) from 2016-2020 and 2022-2024. She is an Associate Editor of journals such as Journal of Extracellular Vesicles (JEV), Journal of Extracellular Biology (JEB), Frontiers in Immunology, Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, and Brazilian Journal of Health Research (BJHR). Currently, she serves as the Communication Coordinator of ISEV (2024-2026).
