Graduated in Medicine from FEMPa (State of Pará) (1983-1988), followed by Specialisation in Clinical Medicine at Santa Casa de Misericórdia de São Paulo (1989-1991) and Medical Residency in Infectology at Instituto de Infectologia Emílio Ribas (IIER) (1993-1995). He studied for a Master of Science (MSc) in Applied Molecular Biology of Infectious Diseases at the London School of Hygiene Tropical Medicine (LSHTM), University of London-UK, completed in 1998 and validated by the University of São Paulo in 1999. PhD obtained in 2008 from the Postgraduate Programme in Health Sciences at the Faculty of Medical Sciences of Santa Casa de São Paulo (FCMSCSP). Adjunct Professor of Infectious Diseases at FCMSCSP until now and Coordinator of the Infectious Diseases Clinic at the Irmandade da Santa Casa de Misericórdia de São Paulo, working 40 hours a week until 2018. Member of the Board of the Postgraduate Programme in Health Sciences at FCMSCSP since 2017. As of 2018, Adjunct Professor (currently C1) of the Infectious and Parasitic Diseases Discipline (DIPA) of the Department of Medicine at the Federal University of São Paulo (UNIFESP)-Escola Paulista de Medicina (EPM). Since 2019, Supervisor of Medical Residency in Infectious Diseases at the Discipline of Infectious Diseases at EPM-UNIFESP. Since 2020, he developed and coordinates the innovative and multidisciplinary Fellowship in Musculoskeletal Infections (IME) course at the Traumatology Discipline of the Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology at EPM-UNIFESP, offered annually with a workload of 1168 hours, aimed at improving the skills of infectious disease doctors and orthopaedic surgeons. He is an ad-hoc reviewer for international journals in the field of musculoskeletal infections and for funding agencies. He has experience in Infectious Diseases and Microbiology, working mainly on the following topics: Biofilm-Associated Infections, Medical Implant-Associated Infections, Osteoarticular Infections and Orthopaedic Prostheses, Skin and Deep Tissue Infections, with a consolidated line of research.

Staphylococcus coagulase negative (SCoN) are one of the most isolated bacteria in microbiology laboratories around the world. Such microorganisms are responsible to colonize skin, mucous and membranes. Among SCoN, the specie most clinically relevant is Staphylococcus epidermidis due to the adaptative ability to adhere and formation of biofilm in medical devices. Biofilms are defined as c…
Use of Cardiac Implantable Electronic Devices (pacemakers, defibrillators and resynchronizers) - DECI - are increasingly common in Brazil and around the world to treat blockages driving, failure or cardiac arrhythmias. Infections are rare but serious and potentially fatal, and its diagnosis is usually made by removal of the implant material after the clinical characteristics as systemic s…
The number of arthroplasties and osteosynthesis has grown rapidly and tends to increase even more in the next years. Consequently, the absolute number of infections due to these procedures has also grown, which has encouraged countless studies to search for the best technique to diagnose implant infection. The development of the technique of implant sonication with inoculation of the soni…
Cholelithiasis is a disease of the digestive system with high prevalence in the world. In Brazil, it is a routine condition, whose studies suggest a prevalence of around 10% of adults. Bacterial colonization of bile and gallstones can occur in cholelithiasis and occurs when there is cholestasis and bacterial proliferation. This proliferation is facilitated by the ability of some bacteria …
Bioactive Glasses (BAG) are the newest materials studied for the adjunctive treatment of osteomyelitis, especially for their osteoconductive, angiogenic, and, most of all, antimicrobian activities, setting them apart of currently available materials. This study is an in vitro analysis of the antimicrobian activity of BAG compared to Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), which is, currently, the…
