Universidade de Santo Amaro (UNISA) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
I hold a degree in Biological Sciences Medical Modality from Universidade Bandeirante de São Paulo and in Veterinary Medicine from Universidade Anhembi Morumbi. I earned a PhD in Sciences Biology of Host-Pathogen Interaction (2008) and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Institute of Biomedical Sciences at the University of São Paulo (2010), as well as a FAPESP Young Investigator grant (2011) at FAMZ-USP. I serve as a supervisor in the Applied Epidemiology to Zoonoses program at the School of Veterinary Medicine of the University of São Paulo and as a permanent faculty member in the One Health graduate program at Universidade de Santo Amaro. My research focuses on zoonotic diseases in domestic and wild animals (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The Trypanosoma genus comprises species that infect several vertebrate orders and are transmitted by various hematophagous invertebrates, usually hematophagous arthropods. Mammalian trypanosomes are usually transmitted by insects such as flies, hemotherters, tabanids, and fleas. A new species of trypanosome was described parasitizing tapirs (Tapirus Terrestris) in Atlantic Forest fragmen…
Wild life animals represent a valuable source of regionally unknown information. They can be considered indicators of environmental quality because they demonstrate, through their diseases, the imbalances of the environment to which they are exposed. Its health and good nutritional status suggest good support capacity and environmental quality for the survival of the species. Thus, in thi…
Trypanosoma genus belongs to the Trypanosomatidae Family, comprising flagellate protozoa of Kinetoplastida order. The trypanosomes parasitize a wide range of hosts, including almost all orders of invertebrates and vertebrates. The Trypanosoma species are parasites of all vertebrate (fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals) with life cycles alternating between vertebrates and invert…

Species of the genus Trypanosoma parasitize vertebrates of all classes (fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals), while species of the genus Leishmania parasitize mammals in the New World and have life cycles that alternate between vertebrate and invertebrate hosts. Most species develop in hematophagous arthropods, which may belong to various orders and families. Trypanosomes circu…
Species of the genus Leishmania parasitize mammals in the New World and have life cycles with alternation between vertebrates and invertebrates. Most species develop in hematophagous arthropods, which may belong to various orders and families. Visceral leishmaniasis is an important zoonosis and has wild and domestic canids as important known reservoirs and the genetic diversity of Leishma…
Giardiasis is an important zoonosis caused by the protozoa Giardia duodenalis and has oral / fecal transmission. Seven genotypes are described and only two are zoonotic. The main objective of this project is the parasitological diagnosis of faecal samples from dogs of the Jardim das Imbuias neighborhood in the southern area of the city of São Paulo and genotyping of the positive samples b…
Species of the Leishmania genus parasitize mammals in the New World and have life cycles with alternation between vertebrates and invertebrates. Most species develop in hematophagous arthropods, which may belong to various orders and families. Cutaneous Leishmaniasis is an important zoonosis and has both wild and domestic animals as important known reservoirs and one of the main causative…
