Senior Tutor

I started at 西瓜视频 as Senior Lecturer in Food Marketing and Sustainability in 2013. I am an academic with an eclectic interest in food marketing, food culture, food sustainability and food security. I graduated in Agricultural Engineering (UFRGS/ Brazil), and I have MSc degree in Agricultural Economics (London/England), and MSc degree in Food Policy (City/England). Prior to becoming a full-time academic, I worked in the food industry for private (Kepler Weber SA; Brahma/AMBEV brewers and ISLA SA) as well as government organisations both nationally and internationally (The Foreign and Commonwealth Office, Japan Foreing Ministry, British Council) exercising roles in market intelligence, policy monitoring and advisory, management, technical sales promotion, education and training as well as consultancy. I have an extensive professional experience which has led me to get involved in teaching, training and consultancy in various countries including China, France, Israel, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, Viet Nam, Peru, Laos, Venezuela to mention some. I also have an extensive list of publications in international peer reviewed journals, books, chapters of books and magazines which could be accessed via:

(2021) Laboratory Animal Research 37 (27) ( Recently a screen from a library of 1.8 million compounds identified in vitro a potent activity of the 2-aminobenzimidazoles series against Leishmania infantum, the etiological agent responsible by over 20.000 deaths each year. Several analogs were synthesized and in vitro tested through an optimization program, leading to a promising 2-aminobenzimidazoles derived compound (2amnbzl-d) that was progressed to in vivo mice studies. However, the not expected toxic effects prevented its progression to more advanced preclinical and clinical phases of drug development. Due to limitations of cell models in detecting whole organism complex interactions, 90% of the compounds submitted to pre-clinical tests are reproved. The use of Zebrafish embryo models could improve this rate, saving mammals, time and costs in the development of new drugs. To test this hypothesis, we compared 2amnbzl-d with two compounds with already established safety profile: carbamazepine and benznidazole, using an embryo Zebrafish platform based on acute toxicity, hepatotoxicity, neurotoxicity and cardiotoxicity assays (Pltf-AcHpNrCd).)

Aguiar, L.K. and Manning, L. (2020) (In emerging economies, economic growth and rapid population migration into urban areas and cities has led to challenges such as land occupation, environmental pollution, and increasing amounts of household solid waste often with little opportunity to ameliorate the negative effects. The lack of access to waste services affects 3 billion people across the world. This research uses Brazil as a case study of a reverse logistics model to create alternative food networks in semi-urban areas to reduce the environmental and social impact of food waste. Combining informal and formal municipal solid waste management networks has great merit to provide an economic return at local government and organisational level, and improve working conditions and nutrient security of some of the poorest and most vulnerable communities in the world.)
