Full Professor at the School of Nursing, University of São Paulo. Holds a degree in Nursing from the Federal University of São Paulo (1987); a Master's degree in Biological Sciences (Molecular Biology) from the Federal University of São Paulo (1993); and a Doctorate in Health Sciences from the Federal University of São Paulo (1998). Currently, she is the Mayor of the Quadrilátero Saúde-Direito Campus at the University of São Paulo and a member of the Quadrilátero Saúde-Direito Management Council. She conducts studies in the areas of kidney diseases, focusing on the pathophysiology of chronic kidney disease, diabetic kidney disease, kidney disease progression, and acute kidney injury, as well as nursing care for critically ill patients. She is leading a multidisciplinary project on the impact of non-pharmacological interventions in diabetic kidney disease and chronic kidney disease; a project on the use of therapeutic mushrooms in diabetic kidney disease in partnership with the Federal University of Amazonas; and a project on the use of renal biomarkers in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, with an experimental design mirroring the clinical one. She is the coordinator of the League of Nursing in Nephrology and Diabetes Care (LENAD). She maintains international partnerships with the University of Florida and the University of Washington.

Acute kidney disease affects approximately …
Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is clinically defined as a 0.3mg/dL or 1.5-fold increase in baseline serum creatinine in 48 hours or a reduction in urinary output to less than 0.5mL/Kg during 6h. Ischemic AKI (iAKI) is predominantly triggered by renal hypoperfusion related to events such as kidney transplantation, unfavorable hemodynamic conditions and even sepsis. Experimental st…
The presence of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) increases the susceptibility to acute renal injury caused by ischemia and reperfusion (I / R), which in clinical practice may coexist in diabetic patients under critical conditions. I/R and DM share common physiopathological mechanisms, involving dynamic physiopathologycomprehending inflammation and oxidation. Curcumin, present in Curcuma longa L., i…

O projeto visa avaliar a nefrotoxicidade da Polimixina B em ratos e em células, epiteliais e endoteliais renis. Utilizando resultados de estudos anteriores, o projeto atual pretende complementar algumas lacunas identificadas implementando o modelo "in vivo" e avaliando uma provável via de mediação da toxicidade da Polimixina B, por meio da heme oxigenase 1, a proteína p21. Será realizada …
