Benedito Barraviera

Benedito Barraviera is currently Full Professor of the Department of Tropical Diseases of Botucatu Medical School, São Paulo State University (UNESP), Brazil, and Director of the Center for the Study of Venoms and Venomous Animals (CEVAP) of UNESP.

"Tropical Diseases and Toxinology are neglected areas in international science. Therefore, we must have research models that are efficient, cheaper and applicable to our patients. At CEVAP, we believe that natural toxins comprise fascinating alternative models that are innovating the development of new drugs to treat animal and human diseases."
