Graduate in Veterinary Medicine from Universidade de São Paulo (1995), master's in Parasitology from Universidade de São Paulo (2001) and ph.d. in Immunology from Universidade de São Paulo (2005). Has experience in Immunology, focusing on Imunogenetics, acting on the following subjects: experimental arthritis and the influence of the intestinal microbiota on susceptibility, and quantitative trait loci. Currently works with gene editing with the CRISPR/Cas9 system. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Arthritis induced by the mineral oil pristane (pristane induced arthritis - PIA) in mice selected for high (HIII) and low (LIII) antibody production (Selection III) is a unique model, because 100% of LIII animals develop a severe arthritis resembling rheumatoid arthritis (RA) while HIII are completely resistant. We have identified a QTL (Quantitative trait locus) in chromosome 3 (Prtial),…
Giardia lamblia (syn. G. duodenalis, G. intestinalis) is a protozoan parasite of the small intestine of mammals. Nearly 200 million people are affected worldwide, with an estimated annual incidence of 500,000 cases. Infection can be either asymptomatic or involve acute or chronic relapsing diarrhea. Despite being considered a single species, there is extensive genetic variability in G. la…
Autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis are increasingly associated with alterations in intestinal microbiota. The microbiota also regulates fundamental aspects of the immune system, and several molecules have been described as bridges connecting the microbial environment and the host. One of these molecules is the AhR (aryl hydrocarbon receptor) a receptor and transcription fact…
