Professor Adjunto (classe C - nível 4)
Bolsista de Produtividade do CNPq - Nível 2
Thiago Verano-Braga é Professor Adjunto do Departamento de Fisiologia e Biofísica da Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais. Coordena o Núcleo de Proteômica Funcional (NPF) e o Laboratório Multiusuários de Proteômica (LM-Prot), que compõe o Centro de Laboratórios Multiusuários (CELAM) do ICB.
Thiago é graduado em Ciências Biológicas pela PUC-Minas (2002), mestre (2004) e doutor (2009) em Bioquímica pela UFMG. Realizou o seu pós-doutorado em proteômica na University of Southern Denmark (2009-2015).
Sua linha de pesquisa é em fisiologia molecular, visando explorar a interação intrincada entre a microbiota intestinal e sistemas renina-angiotensina e calicreína-cininas. Ao integrar técnicas de proteômica de ponta e validações funcionais, a sua equipe busca contribuir para uma compreensão mais profunda da fisiopatologia das doenças e, em última instância, para a medicina personalizada.
