Holds a Bachelor's degree in Animal Science from the Universidade do Estado de Santa Catarina (UDESC), an MBA in Agribusiness, and a Master's and PhD in Sciences (Animal Science and Pastures) from the Escola Superior de Agricultura "Luiz de Queiroz" at the Universidade de São Paulo (ESALQ/USP). Additionally, he completed a specialization in "Modern Education" at the Pontifícia Universidade Católica (PUC-RS). Professionally, he worked in the Technical Department of the Indústria Agropecuária Santa Cruz (INACRUZ) in Bolivia, where he developed a commercial feed program for piglets and provided technical support in swine and poultry production. Later, he served as a Technical Nutrition Consultant at Cargill Alimentos/Nutron, specializing in formulating diets and feeding programs for pigs and developing nutritional solutions for swine production. Currently, he is an Adjunct Professor at the Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso (UFMT), at the Sinop Campus, where he has been serving as the Coordinator of the Graduate Program in Animal Science since January 2022. He has extensive experience in the nutrition and feeding of non-ruminants, focusing on feed formulation, feeding programs, feed evaluation, digestive efficiency, nutritional additives, feed manufacturing processes, and applied nutrition for swine and poultry.Scientific Identifiers: Scopus Author ID: 54912983700 (H-index: 8); Web of Science ResearcherID: G-3616-2012 (H-index: 7); ORCID: 0000-0001-9322-2072 (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The use of sub-therapeutic levels of antimicrobial agents in feed is an effective strategy for maintaining the gastrointestinal tract conditions and to improve the performance of weanling pigs. However, their use as feed additive has been restricted due to the possibility of development of bacterial cross-resistance. The purpose of this research is to study the potential of beta-acids of …
Weaning is considered a critical period to piglets due nutritional, immunological, social and environmental challenges. A recent research showed positive results about rice oil's nutritional value to the feeding of weanling piglets. Two experiments will be executed to evaluate rice oil's digestibility and the effects of rice oil inclusion in the diet of weanling pigs on performance, organ…
