Hello everyone! My name is Lucas Rezende, and I am a final-year brazilian medical student who joined Meta Academy about three years ago. When I started, I had absolutely no background in research. I didn’t know how to read papers, design studies, or write manuscripts. Everything I’ve achieved in research started within this program.
One of the most valuable aspects of Meta Academy was the network. All of my academic connections were built through the course, allowing me to work directly with professors from institutions such as the University of Groningen, the University of Nebraska Medical Center, and the Mayo Clinic. The mentorship and exposure to high-level research were truly exceptional.
The Expert Program was a turning point for me. It gave me the skills and confidence to not only participate in projects but to collaborate with senior authors and take on leadership roles in research.
So far, I have published 11 peer-reviewed papers and contributed to 19 congress presentations worldwide. I also had the privilege of presenting at the European Society of Cardiology Congress in Lisbon, with both moderated and poster presentations.
Overall, Meta Academy completely changed my trajectory. It provided the foundation, mentorship, and opportunities I needed to grow from zero experience into a productive researcher. I highly recommend it to anyone serious about building a strong academic career.
