BSc in Biology, MSc in Psychology, and PhD in Neuroscience from the University of Sao Paulo in Ribeirao Preto (2000-2012). Postdoc in Neuroscience at the University of Pittsburgh, University of Sao Paulo in Ribeirao Preto, and University of Michigan Medical School (2013-2022). Currently Research Faculty at the University of Michigan Medical School, in collaboration with Oregon Health and Science University. Specialized in rodent behavior and physiology using techniques such as appetitive conditioning, brain stimulation/recording, drug delivery and machine vision. Also experienced in the analysis of human EEG. Currently interested in the temporal structure of REM sleep, as well as the relationships between sleep architecture and disorders affecting mood and social affiliation (R01-NIMH).

The consolidation of explicit memories occurs in discrete steps, possibly based on the oscillatory activity underlying slow-wave sleep (SWS) and rapid-eye-movement sleep (REMS). The direct input from hippocampal CA1 to the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is crucial for such consolidation, whose synaptic plasticity mechanisms may be controlled by the level of synchronization between mPFC a…
The prefrontal cortex (PFC) regulates attention toward task-relevant stimuli, being sensitive to neurochemical contexts. However, the multi-unit dynamics behind such contexts remain poorly studied. In fact, PFC activity patterns during preparatory attention were detailed only recently, but without neuromodulation testing. A critical component of this modulation comes from the noradrenergi…
