Has experience in Animal Science, with emphasis on equine behavior. He had FAPESP scholarship twice during graduation, working with ruminal fermentation of Nellore cattle of high and low residual feed intake, and with estimation of genetic components for kinematic characteristics of the locomotion of Mangalarga, Mangalarga Marchador and Campolina horses. Academic exchange for Germany, studying in the Universtität Trier, in the area of Genetics of Populations, Gene Expression and Genetic Engineering, as well Multivariate Statistics, with CAPES scholarship through the Science without Borders program. He is currently developing research in the field of genetic improvement of horses, with estimation of genetic components and identification of molecular markers related to gait.

The cost of genotyping still being the main obstacle for research and implementation of genomic selection in several animal species in Brazil. Studies of genome-wide association are also dependent on government or private funding, and often have the number of animals reduced according to the cost of each genotyped animal in the experiments. This work aims to use the simulation technique t…
The DMRT3 gene has been described as the major gene to serve in determining gait phenotype in several horse breeds. The A allele of SNP 22999655C>A of DMRT3 was appointed as responsible for this feature. In the Brazilian breed Mangalarga Marchador, which features two gait patterns with well-defined characteristics, AA and AC genotypes were associated with marcha picada and the CC genotype…
The objective is to evaluate genetic parameters related to the conformation and the gait quality in horses of the Mangalarga and Campolina races. The hypothesis to be tested is that the conformation is correlated with the gait and both are inheritable in the population. Will be used 200 horses, duly registered by the studbook Office of the Breeders Associations. The animals will be measur…
