Drauzio Eduardo Naretto Rangel graduated with a B.Sc. in Biology from the Universidade São Francisco in Bragança Paulista (1983). He then worked for three years at UNICAMP (1982-1986) on fungi for biological control of Triatoma infestans and Panstrongylus megistus, insect vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi, the protozoan that causes Chagas disease in humans. After a 14 years break from the field, he received his MSc. in microbiology from UNESP Jaboticabal (2001). His thesis involved studies on the fungi Verticillium lecanii and Aphanocladium album as control agents for the rubber-tree-pest insect Leptopharsa heveae working with Dr. Antonia do Carmo Barcelos Correia. Rangel then joined Dr. Donald W. Roberts in the Department of Biology at Utah State University as a visiting scholar. In 2002, Rangel received a prestigious CNPq GDE fellowship to do his PhD, with his research focusing on the phenotypic variations in tolerance to UV-B radiation and heat in the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae. During his PhD he won several awards including student awards, one from the American Association for the Advancement of Science (2004) and two from the Society for Invertebrate Pathology (2006) and two academic excellence awards by the USU School of Graduate Studies (Highest Grade Point Average), as well as an Honorary Award for Academic Excellence and listing on the National (USA) Deans List for 2003/2004. His Ph.D. research resulted in more than twenty publications. After finishing his PhD at Utah State University in 2006, He received the Young Investigator Grant from FAPESP and Productivity Award Fellowship from CNPq for research on microbial control of insects; tolerance of fungi to UV-B radiation and heat; soil microbiology, and environmental microbiology. He greatly helped the internationalization of the universities he was employed by hosting several international scholars. In 2008 he brought as a visiting scientist Dr. Zengzhi Li, former President of Anhui Agricultural University, Hefei, China to give a course about biological control of insects in China. In 2010, Dr. Rangel organized the First Brazilian Symposium about the Effects of Increased UV Radiation on Agriculture, which brought five Brazilian and nine International researchers. In 2012 he organized the Workshop Sex, Light, and Carotenes: The Development of Fungi a week long course on fungal photobiology by Dr. Luis M. Corrochano from the University of Seville, Spain. In 2014 he created and organized the most successful symposium of his career, the International Symposium on Fungal Stress (ISFUS), which it is already in its fifth edition where 111 speakers from 24 different countries have been brought to Brazil. Drauzio has been in the editorial board of Biocontrol Science and Technology since 2011, and he has been guest editor of a special issue in Current Genetics and guest editor of three special issues in Fungal Biology. In addition, Dr. Rangel has been a reviewer for 44 scientific journals. Drauzio become an editor for the journal Fungal Biology from the British Mycological Society since March 2020.
