ORCID
Universidade de São Paulo (USP). Instituto de Ciências Biomédicas (ICB) (Institutional affiliation for the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Associate Professor, Department of Physiology and Biophysics, ICB / USP. He holds a Master's degree in Food Science and a PhD in Morphofunctional Sciences from the University of São Paulo and a postdoctoral degree from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. Has experience in the following subjects: leptin, obesity, central control of glycemic homeostasis, energy balance and neuroendocrinology. It uses neuroanatomical, histological, molecular biology and genetic manipulation methods to investigate molecular mechanisms predisposing to obesity and diabetes mellitus via the study of neural circuits.
