Ana Alice Pimenta Pereira

I'm a third-year PhD student in Biomedical & Biological Sciences at Cornell University, where I am fortunate to be advised by Dr. Kroon Campos. My current work addresses how epitranscriptomic marks on viral RNA shape arbovirus replication across human and mosquito hosts. I am broadly interested in RNA biology, virus–host interactions, and vector-borne disease.

Previously, I completed my DVM at the Federal University of Viçosa in Brazil.
