About me
Born and raised in Brazil, I quickly found out I like to work on epidemiology of diseases occurring both in humans and animals. I don't consider myself a researcher of a single disease - I have worked on rabies prevention in dogs, rabies occurrence in bats, leptospirosis occurrence (both in humans and dogs), dengue, Zika and chikungunya occurrence in humans and mosquitos, yellow fever occurrence in non-human primates and mosquitos and with PRRS and PED in swine.
On the links below you can find my MSc dissertation the PhD thesis (both in Portuguese), respectively.
