I finished my MD/PhD at the Federal University of Bahia-2022 (Brazil) and received awards from CAPES and the National Academy of Medicine - Brazil for my PhD thesis. I strive to improve the quality of evidence in the field of infectious diseases. My goal is to generate knowledge based on rigorous methodology while also providing highly interpretable information that can be used by health care workers.
