Caian was born in Fortaleza, the capital of Ceara-Brazil. He earned his undergraduate degree from the Federal Institute of Education, Science, and Technology of Ceara and his master’s degree from the Federal University of Ceara. His master’s research focused on the biological effects of encapsulating nitrosyl ruthenium complexes in lipid nanoparticles, under the supervision of Professor Eduardo Sousa. Currently pursuing his PhD., Caian is developing cyclodextrin-based inclusion complexes and lipid nanoparticles to enhance the delivery of ruthenium complexes for Neglected Tropical Diseases and Cancer treatment. Outside the lab, he enjoys concerts, loves cinema, and exploring new cuisines.
