Universidade de São Paulo (USP). Faculdade de Odontologia de Bauru (FOB) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Graduated in Dentistry from the Bauru School of Dentistry (FOB), USP (1992), Master in Dentistry, area of #8203;#8203;Periodontics, FOB-USP (1995) and Ph.D. in Functional and Molecular Biology from UNICAMP (1999) and Specialist in Orofacial Harmonization (2021). She was (2011-2014) Member of the Awards Review Committee of the International Association for Dental Research (IADR) and Member of the Board of the European Organization for Research in Caries (ORCA). She was Chair of the IADR Cariology group (2019-2020) and coordinator of the Health Area II (Dentistry) at FAPESP (2018-2022. He was Head of the Department of Biological Sciences (2006-2010) and President of the Research Committee (2014-2018) at FOB-USP. She was Associate Editor of the Journal of Applied Oral Sciences and the International Journal of Dentistry. She is currently Full Professor at the Department of Biological Sciences and Dean of FOB-USP, 1A researcher at CNPq and Editor of the Monographs in Oral Science series (Karger). She has expertise in Dentistry, with emphasis on Cariology, Oral Biochemistry and Orofacial Harmonization, acting on the following topics: fluorides, dental fluorosis, dental caries, dental erosion, bacterial biofilm, acquired film, toxicology, proteomics and autologous platelets aggregates. Member of the Brazilian Academy of Dentistry (chair 69) since 2021. Received more than 70 awards, highlighting the Basil Bibby Young Investigator Award in Cariology (IADR, 2008) and the IADR Distinguished Scientist Award H. Trendley Dean Memorial Award (2014). She has published 5 books and more than 500 articles in journals with a selective editorial policy. She presents h factor = 46, with 9,268 citations (Web of Science) and h=73 with 20,546 citations at Google Scholar. She is among the most influent researchers of the world (Position 31.316/223.153; ranking de Stanford, Ioannidis, John P.A. (2024), August 2024 data-update for "Updated science-wide author databases of standardized citation indicators", Elsevier Data Repository, V7, doi: 10.17632/btchxktzyw.7) and of University of São Paulo (position 11/249). According to the same ranking, in Dentistry, she ranks 2nd among 94 Brazilian researchers and 1st among researchers from the State of São Paulo. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)
