Among the activities of cooperation made by a visiting professor is also planned to hold an open lecture on the kinematics to students of campus of Ribeirão Preto of University of São Paulo during the "First Cycle of Lectures in the Course of Physical Therapy Biomechanics FMRP-USP", having as main target the undergraduate students of Physical Education and Physiotherapy and postgraduate interested in the study of human movement. The invitation will be extended to students of Physiotherapy of campus of São Paulo University of São Paulo, Federal University of São Carlos and Ribeirão Preto. (AU)
