Invited Professor and Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the School of Dentistry of Ribeirão Preto, University of São Paulo, Brazil. Lieutenant Colonel in the Brazilian Military Police Dental Department (since 1994). Specialist in endodontics with focus on advanced root canal anatomy research using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) technology. Co-creator of "The Root Canal Anatomy Project," a free online educational resource providing high-resolution 3D images and videos of root canal systems for educators, students, and clinicians worldwide.

Over 30 years of combined clinical, military, academic, and research experience in endodontics. Pioneer in applying micro-CT technology to study root canal morphology and its influence on endodontic treatment outcomes. Research focuses on non-invasive 3D analysis of root canal anatomy, evaluation of root canal preparation techniques, canal obturation protocols, and retreatment procedures. Expert in identifying anatomical variations that impact clinical decision-making and treatment success. Maintains part-time clinical practice in Brazilian Military Police Dental Services alongside academic research position.

Member of the Scientific Advisory Panel for the Journal of Endodontics (official journal of the American Association of Endodontists) and the Editorial Board of the International Endodontic Journal (official journal of the European Society of Endodontology). One of the most cited endodontic researchers globally with over 150 peer-reviewed publications in leading journals.
