Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP). Instituto de Física Gleb Wataghin (IFGW) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Graduated in Physics at the University of Campinas (UNICAMP). He obtained his M.Sc. and Ph.D. at the same University. His Ph.D. thesis was the first to employ near infrared spectroscopy methods for Neuroscience applications in Brazil. Prof. Mesquita worked at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH, Boston, USA) and was associate researcher at the University of Pennsylvania (Philadelphia, USA). Currently, Prof. Mesquita is a Professor of the Institute of Physics (IFGW) at UNICAMP, where he founded the Biomedical Optics Lab. Since 2011 the lab develops research on light transport through highly scattered media and build optical technologies for biomedical applications such as the study of the rain and cancer. Prof. Mesquita has published several articles in the field - both for peers and for the public, - and holds 2 patents that explore novel methods for near infrared light in biological tissue. He is member of the Education Committee of the Society for functional near infrared spectroscopy (SfNIRS) and associate editor of Neurophotonics. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The COVID-19 pandemic has sparked a search for adjuvant and supportive interventions that can improve the clinical outcomes of infected patients. During the acute phase, clinical symptoms of the disease range from asymptomatic infection to severe pneumonia. Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is the main complication in the critical acute cases, which quite often leads to the need fo…
Cerebrovascular disease and neurotrauma are two of the leading causes of death and disability in Brazil and in the world. It has an enormous socioeconomic impact on society, as well as the patient and the patient's family. Although constant microvascular perfusion monitoring is of fundamental importance following cerebral damage, the lack of suitable instrumentation currently limits clin…

In the clinic, it is thought that therapeutic interventions during the initial phases of neurovascular and/or traumatic brain injuries may have potential for meaningful impact on patient's outcome. Notably lacking, however, is the ability to match critical care therapeutics to any dynamic neurophysiologic end-point. Although some tools that can probe neurophysiology are available nowadays…
