Veterinarian graduated from the School of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Science, University of São Paulo (FMVZ/USP), with a Masters and PhD in Sciences focused on viral surveillance in non-human primates. Extensive experience in scientific research, molecular diagnostics, clinical management, and conservation of free-ranging and captive primates. Actively involved in national and international wildlife virology projects, applying molecular biology techniques, next-generation sequencing (NGS), virus isolation, and serology. Research interests include the interface between biodiversity, urbanization, and pathogen emergence, with a focus on how habitat disturbances influence viral spillover risks. Experienced in conservation medicine, One Health, management of neotropical, invasive, and exotic primates, and mentoring students in academic and research activities. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Human, animal and ecosystem health are interconnected and interdependent, together in One Health. Modify one and the others will get impacted. The current Age we are living in, called Anthropocene, is defined by extensive and accelerated human expansion and its environmental degradation. In regard to the Anthropocene Age and the One health concepts one of the most worrying consequences ma…
Pathogen research on wild animals has great value due to threats experienced by these species and their risk of extinction. Zoonotic importance of primates is relevant regarding the phylogenetic proximity and issues relating to public health. Habitat fragmentation, increased contact between domestic animals, human and non-human primates may favor the emergence of zoonotic diseases. The Go…
Brazil has the richest biodiversity of New World primate (NWP) in the Americas, many are endemic and nearly half (48%) with some degree of threat on the IUCN red list. Considering the One Health and the Anthropocene Age, one of the most worrying consequences is the Emergence and/or Reemergence of Infectious Diseases (EDIs and ReDIs). Thus, the metropolitan area of São Paulo is a clear exa…
