Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP). Campus de Jaboticabal. Faculdade de Ciências Agrárias e Veterinárias (FCAV) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
The professor graduated in Veterinary Medicine from the State University of Londrina (2003), and obtained his master's degree in Veterinary Medicine (2005) and PhD in Veterinary Medicine (2010) from FCAV/Unesp. He is currently assistant professor at FCAV/Unesp, accredited as permanent professor of the Veterinary Sciences graduate course and responsible for the courses in Parasitic Diseases and Zoonoses in undergraduate course in Veterinary Medicine and Saúde Silvestre and Project Management and Communication in Science in Veterinary Sciences graduate program. He is responsible for the Laboratory of Parasitic Diseases (LabEPar) and develops research with One Health approach on pathogens in wild boars, European hares and hunting dogs. He is a founding member of the Grupo Latinoamericano de Investigación y Colaboración en Enfermedades de Vertebrates Silvestres (GLICEVS), Grupo de Investigación en Salud Ambiental (GISA) and a member of the Brazilian College of Veterinary Parasitology (CBPV). In 2024, joined the São Paulo Parasitology Society as scientific director (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The wild boar, an impactful invasive species in Brazil, is subject to population control activities, which often include the use of hunting dogs. Hunters commonly consume wild boar meat, which is also used to feed their dogs, posing a risk of Toxoplasma gondii infection for humans and both T. gondii and Neospora caninum for dogs. The study aimed to investigate the prevalence of infection …

The global population growth, associated with the environmental fragmentation and degradation,and the increasing proximity between human communities, livestock and wildlife lead to destabilization of trophic chains and consequent rise of emerging diseases. More than 75% of emerging zoonotic pathogens of humans has originated in wild animals. Carnivores have vital importance to the integri…

As the anthropization of biome regions advances in Brazilian territory, its negative impacts on various ecosystems also increase, as can be seen, for example, with the increase in species of wild carnivores that suffer from the loss of their habitats, increasing the rate of these animals being run over on highways in the interior of southeastern Brazil. Furthermore, ecotone regions can al…
Toxoplasmosis and neosporosis can affect wild boar (sus scrofa) and pose an unsuspected risk to human, animal and ecosystem health. Different studies have demonstrated the participation of wild boars in the biological cycles of these pathogens, with a variable prevalence rate in different regions recorded in Brazil and in the world. Studies that integrate knowledge about wild boar endopar…
The nematode Stephanurus dentatus parasites swine and eventually cattle, has a direct life cycle and the host is infected orally or percutaneously. Stephanurosis causes economic losses in swine farms in tropical and subtropical countries and is present in wild populations of wild boar (Sus scrofa), which can act as dispersers of S. dentatus for swine and native taiassuids. Stephanurus den…
Toxoplasmosis is a worldwide distributed zoonosis caused by Toxoplasma gondii, a zoonotic protozoan that infect a several animal species, including wild boars. Wild boars are currently one of the invasive exotic species that cause great damage to ecosystems and agriculture, also acting as diseases reservoirs. In Brazil, an enactment of lethal control for wild boars was decreed by the Norm…
