Biologist graduated and postgraduate (M.Sc. and Ph.D.) in BioSciences at the Department of Biology and Evolutionary Genetics at BioSciences, University of São Paulo. Senior Research Scientist at the Health Department of the State of São Paulo develops problem-solving scientific research to improve the identification and the geographical mapping of snails related to schistosomiasis. The snail´s molecular identification integrated with geospatial analysis under climate change modeling is the focus of recent research. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) and the partial mitochondrial 16S DNA has been shown to be a useful genetic markers for species identification and phylogenetic reconstruction in the genus of freshwater snails Biomphalaria (Preston 1910). Additionally, ITS2 studies in Biomphalaria uncovered significant intra-specific genetic variability suggesting the presence of cry…
