Research Manuscripts

I write and edit well-structured scientific articles, ensuring accuracy, rigour, and clarity for publication. I also assist with data analysis, manuscript submission, and navigating the peer review process.Some examples of my work include:

  • Gomes Pereira, S., et al. (2021). The 3D architecture and molecular foundations of de novo centriole assembly via bicentrioles. Current Biology. 31 (19): 4340-4353.e7. DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2021.07.063. (BioRxiv preprint).

  • Julca, I., et al. (2021). Comparative transcriptomic analysis of land plants reveals conserved transcriptional programs underpinning organogenesis and reproduction. Nature Plants. 7: 1143–1159. DOI:10.1038/s41477-021-00958-2 (BioRxiv preprint).

  • Bento, M., et al. (2017). Durum wheat diversity for heat stress tolerance during inflorescence emergence is correlated to TdHSP101C expression in early developmental stages. PLOS One 12 (12), e0190085. DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0190085.

Literature Reviews

I gather, analyse, and synthesise existing studies, providing comprehensive overviews highlighting key evidence, trends, and knowledge gaps.Some examples of my work include:

  • Gomes Pereira, S., et al. (2021). Biophysical and quantitative principles of centrosome biogenesis and structure. Annual Reviews of Cell and Developmental Biology. Vol. 37: 43-63. DOI: 10.1146/annurev-cellbio-120219-051400.

  • Nabais, C., et al. (2018). Noncanonical Biogenesis of Centrioles and Basal Bodies. Cold Spring Harb Symp Quant Biol. 82: 123-135. DOI: 10.1101/sqb.2017.82.034694.

Grant Applications

I craft comprehensive and persuasive proposals to help secure funding.I have experience with applications for various funders, including:

  • Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT)

  • European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO)

  • European Commission

  • Swiss National Foundation (SNF)

Abstracts / Summaries

I distil complex scientific findings into clear, concise abstracts and summaries, making research accessible and impactful in various settings, including conferences, healthcare, and industry.Some examples of my work include:

  • Gomes Pereira, S., Deraspe, J., Genoud, C., Hamel, V., Guichard, P. [Piecing Together a Blepharoplast-like Structure in Human Cells to Explore the Enigmatic Naked Cartwheel]. Abstract #117. EMBO Workshop: Centrosomes in development, disease and evolution. 26-29 September 2023, Istanbul, Türkiye.

  • Gomes Pereira, S. and Schein, S. Summary of Applications of Machine Learning in Prognostication of Mild Traumatic Brain Injury aimed at healthcare professionals. February 2025. AI in Medicine (AIIM).org.

Posters

I design engaging and informative posters that effectively communicate research findings.See examples of my work in the gallery below.

Slide Decks / Presentations

I create well-organized and compelling slide decks that enhance the clarity and impact of presentations.Explore some examples of my work below.

Podcasts

I create engaging science storytelling through audio content, including interviews and discussions that bring (open) science to life.Namely, I co-produce and edit the Preprints in Motion podcast.

Miscellaneous

I develop a range of content tailored to specific audiences, including blog posts, social media content, and white papers.Some examples include:
