Graduated in 1983 from the Veterinary Medicine course at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Zootechnics of the University of São Paulo (FMVZ/USP), specializing in Experimental Pathology, at the University of São Paulo (1984) and specializing in Animal Toxicology, at the Pontifical Catholic University RS and ABEAS/MEC (1985). She completed her Master's (1986) and PhD (1988) in the postgraduate program in Experimental and Comparative Pathology at FMVZ/USP. She is currently a Full Professor at the Department of Pathology, FMVZ/USP. Her research lines within Pharmacology include the evaluation of the efficacy of veterinary drugs; in Veterinary Toxicology, toxic plants of agricultural interest and toxicity of medicinal plants. Proposal of animal models for safety evaluation. She has published around 130 scientific papers. She is the author of the books "Farmacologia Aplicada à Medicina Veterinária" (7th ed), "Farmacologia Aplicada à Avicultura", "Medicamentos em Animais de Produção", "Toxicologia Aplicada à Medicina Veterinária" (2nd ed) and "Plantas ornamentais e alimentos de origem vegetal tóxicos para animais de companhia". She is the author of dozens of book chapters. Since 1991 she has been the coordinator of the Center for Research in Veterinary Toxicology (CEPTOX), FMVZ/USP. Since 2005 she has represented the Federal Council of Veterinary Medicine on various Commissions and Working Groups related to veterinary drugs, at the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply (MAPA), Ministry of Health (MS) and National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA). Since 2016 she has been acting on the Committee of Experts in food additives - veterinary drugs (JECFA) of the United Nations Organization for Agriculture and Food and the World Health Organization (FAO/WHO).

One of humanity's greatest challenges is ensuring food security in a sustainable production system in line with the One Health concept. Foods from aquaculture with high nutritional quality are decisive in producing animal protein. Brazil has enormous potential to leverage aquaculture exploitation due to its favorable climatic conditions and extensive water resources that allow the product…
Antimicrobial resistance is probably the biggest problem to be faced by health authorities around the world today. Studies have shown that many species of resistant bacteria that are present in the agricultural environment can affect human health by complex pathways of environmental exposure. Thus, there is a clear relationship between the use of antimicrobial in animal production, partic…
One of the main causes of losses in Brazilian cattle farming is due to poisoning from toxins, present in plants or those produced by fungi, given that the economic losses caused by this type of poisoning are related, basically, to the frequent and prolonged exposure of the animals to these substances, which can produce effects, such as: fall in productivity and weight gain, alterations in…

Aquaculture is experiencing constant growth on a global scale and has followed the same pattern in Brazilian agribusiness, for instance, in the production of tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Consequently, the practice of intensive and super-intensive fish farming is becoming increasingly common. On the other hand, unlike other agricultural sectors, aquaculture in Brazil still lacks author…
Currently, the use of growth promoter antimicrobials (AGPs) is lower than in the past because they are one of the potential responsible for the occurrence of bacterial resistance. Since one of the hypotheses for the mechanism of action of AMDs is to decrease inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may be an excellent substitute. The prese…
Increasing in frequency of antimicrobial (AM) resistant microorganisms is a subject is a major worldwide concern. One factor that contributes to selection of resistant bacteria is the unrestricted use of AMs. In addition, the widespread use of AMs as a growth performance promoters (AGPs) in animal production may also contribute to bacterial resistance. Several compounds are being evaluate…
