Dr. Jansen de Araujo, coordinator research projects at Emergents Virus Research Laboratory at the Department of Microbiology at the Institute of Biomedical Sciences at the University of São Paulo - USP. Graduated in Biological Sciences, Doctor in Microbiology, with emphasis in Virology at the University of São Paulo (2011). Has worked in the emerging infectious diseases virus research in Biosafety and Biocontainment Level 3 (BSL3) laboratories. Coordinator on field team at Virology Laboratory of the Institute of Biomedical Sciences at the University of São Paulo (2005 to 2016). He began his scientific career at the Biological Institute of the Center for Plant Defense, with an emphasis on Phytopathology and Phytovirology (2000-2002). Worked on Viral Genetic Diversity Virus project (VGDN), supported by FAPESP at Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP) (2002-2004), mainly to sequencing viruses such as HIV, Hepatitis C and Hantavirus. He advised the Ministry of Agriculture (MAPA) in training personnel and monitoring the Avian Influenza virus (AIV) in the Brazilian territory (2006-2007). He participated in Antarctic Expeditions working on the molecular diagnosis of viruses in wild animals (2006-2012). Research interests include eco-epidemiological studies of wildlife and emerging infectious diseases with zoonotic potential in Brazil, such as Hantavirus, Avian Influenza, West Nile Virus, Nipahvirus, Coronavirus and New Castle Disease (2004-present). He has expertise in virology, molecular biology, Next Generation DNA sequencing (NGS) and marine microbiology in microalgae cultivation. The head of the Marine Microbiology Research Laboratory at AquaSmart, in the biotechnological development of microalgae culture applied to Brazilian aquaculture. Currently had colaboration to research group on emerging Coronaviruses in wild animals in Brazil (PREVIR Project). (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Currently we witness the emergence of viral diseases as never reported before. At thispoint, we had follow new epidemic in birds with the recent discovery of subtypes of avian influenzavirus (AIV) H5N2, H5N8 and also recombinant H5N1 of highly pathogenic (HPAI) in Washingtonin the United States, detected in wild and domestic birds. These viruses initially infected wild birds,and after rea…
Microalgae production can be key role in the aquaculture market in the world. In Brazil, some species of microalgae of commercial interest are still poorly explored or are only produced on small laboratory scale. The aquaculture area basically depends on these nutrients and products, which drive the growth of the national market. The mastery in the cultivation of different species of micr…
The microalgae are generally utilized as primarily element to stablish the first step as initial source in the food chain at the aquaculture field. The big advantage on the use of this marine microalgae over the others unicellular algae is that, those ones produces a lot of elements, big quantities of fat acids and lipids, besides sugars and pigment. It has a high biotechnological potenti…
The development of the Brazilian aquaculture activity is constantly growing. Current data shows that Brazil produces about 2 million tons of fish per year, and only 40% is cultivated (Ministry of Fisheries and Aquaculture, 2014). Brazil major potential, mainly due to its dimensions, that favors the growing of this market and can become one of the world's leading seafood producers. The GNP…

The influenza A virus has caused flu epidemics and pandemics over time, leading to numerous infections and deaths. In just over a century, five pandemic events occurred, the worst of which, in 1918 (Spanish Flu), led to more than 50 million deaths. Furthermore, this pathogen causes seasonal epidemics that cause 3 to 5 million severe cases and approximately 500,000 deaths annually worldwid…
Emerging viruses are among the most widely studied topics among scientists, with zoonotic origin viruses being the main ones responsible for emerging from wild animals to cause infections, outbreaks and even pandemics in humans, and in this context the Avian Influenza Virus (AIV) stands out as an emerging infectious agent. The AIV belongs to the Orthomyxoviridae family, the virus is spher…
