Joaquim Figueiredo
I had the pleasure to know and work with Alex in Sai Life Sciences. Alex is a very committed Business Development professional that I always admired him for his energy and resilience. He has a very systematic approach to BD. He does not give up when encountering obstacles. I always admired Alex for his honesty and candid approach. He is a excellent team mate and I always enjoyed exchanging ideas with him. He has a very fresh approach to novel situations. Alex helped me to see in ways that I couldn’t. We complemented each other and for this I missed working with him. Joaquim

Sep 2011 - Oct 2012
During the last year in the University of Milan, I worked in the Pharmacological and Biomolecular Sciences Department. Together with the Lab team we investigate how, after the activation of the nuclear receptor LXR, the Neuroactive steroids act in the peripheral nervous system as protective agents for acquired or inherited peripheral neuropathy. Throughout this period I have been in charge of purification and extraction of the Steroids from solid samples, I have learned the basis of Liquid Chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, the use of linear ion trap-mass spectrometer (LTQ,Thermo Electron) and how to analyze the results with ANOVA.
