Universidade de São Paulo (Brazil)


I am from São Paulo, Brazil, and I am 34 years old. I graduated from Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas and completed my residency at Universidade de São Paulo, where I currently serve as vice coordinator. Since my graduation, I have been actively involved in teaching. Currently, I tutor two family medicine residents at a public primary care clinic, where I have been working since my residency in 2018. I also teach at a private university and serve as a supervisor for a public program in Brazil called Mais Médicos, which was created to provide doctors in remote areas.


In Brazil, there is still a lack of research in primary care, and I also feel the need to deepen my understanding of research activities to better support my students. These are my main reasons for seeking this course.
