Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP). Instituto de Física Gleb Wataghin (IFGW) (Institutional affiliation for the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Graduated in Physics at the University of Campinas (UNICAMP). He obtained his M.Sc. and Ph.D. at the same University. His Ph.D. thesis was the first to employ near infrared spectroscopy methods for Neuroscience applications in Brazil. Prof. Mesquita worked at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH, Boston, USA) and was associate researcher at the University of Pennsylvania (Philadelphia, USA). Currently, Prof. Mesquita is a Professor of the Institute of Physics (IFGW) at UNICAMP, where he founded the Biomedical Optics Lab. Since 2011 the lab develops research on light transport through highly scattered media and build optical technologies for biomedical applications such as the study of the rain and cancer. Prof. Mesquita has published several articles in the field - both for peers and for the public, - and holds 2 patents that explore novel methods for near infrared light in biological tissue. He is member of the Education Committee of the Society for functional near infrared spectroscopy (SfNIRS) and associate editor of Neurophotonics. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

The COVID-19 pandemic has sparked a search for adjuvant and supportive interventions that can improve the clinical outcomes of infected patients. During the acute phase, clinical symptoms of the disease range from asymptomatic infection to severe pneumonia. Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is the main complication in the critical acute cases, which quite often leads to the need fo…
Cerebrovascular disease and neurotrauma are two of the leading causes of death and disability in Brazil and in the world. It has an enormous socioeconomic impact on society, as well as the patient and the patient's family. Although constant microvascular perfusion monitoring is of fundamental importance following cerebral damage, the lack of suitable instrumentation currently limits clin…
One of the biggest challenges in neuroscience is comprehending brain function mechanisms on different temporal and spatial scales. In particular, the topic of neurophysiology during the resting state (i.e., the state in which the brain does not consciously receive any internal or external stimulation) at the macroscopic level is of great interest, not only by the brain's high metabolic co…
Material media in which incident radiation is highly scattered are known as turbid media. Such media can be characterized by their optical and dynamic properties, related to the concentration and the mean square displacement of their constituents that interact with the radiation. Diffuse optical spectroscopy techniques are capable of obtaining the properties of turbid media noninvasively …

Nowadays, neuroscience is a global, high investment research field in both financial and academic matters. Functional neuroscience techniques are one of the main foundations of our current knowledge regarding the human brain functioning and are in constant development. Despite the great advances in neuroimaging, functional neuroscience studies are, for the most part, localized inside labo…
Brain activation triggers a chain of cellular, metabolic and vascular processes. Neuronal activity increases energy consumption thus changing local concentrations of glucose and oxygen. The metabolic demand is supplied by cerebral blood flow (CBF) that brings glucose and oxygen to tissue via blood vessels. This relationship between neuronal activation and subsequent changes in metabolism …
The brain is a complex and dynamical system that is always modifying itself to adapt and evolve. This capability of changing constantly is known as brain plasticity, or neuroplasticity. Although neuroplasticity is pointed as the key cerebral feature to brain reorganization and development, the study of neuroplasticity is restricted to the limitations of current clinical neuroimaging modal…

In the clinic, it is thought that therapeutic interventions during the initial phases of neurovascular and/or traumatic brain injuries may have potential for meaningful impact on patient's outcome. Notably lacking, however, is the ability to match critical care therapeutics to any dynamic neurophysiologic end-point. Although some tools that can probe neurophysiology are available nowadays…
