Abstract

The article evaluated the characteristics of Research Productivity grantees in the Health Sciences area of the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development. Bibliometric and scientometric indicators and additional profile indicators were applied to 1,634 researchers with current grants in 2021. Data were collected from National Council for Scientific and Technological Development and Lattes Curriculum. There was a greater number of grantees in the Medicine Advisory Committee, at level 2 and in the Southeast region. The percentages of female and male grantees were similar. There was a difference in the distribution of the number of articles among the six Committees and the number of articles did influence the level of the grant received, as level 1A grantees were more productive compared to grantees from other levels. It brings important contributions to public policies in Science and Technology and to the field by evaluating the Health Sciences area in an integral way, based on diversified indicators.

Holds experience in the study of cytology and histology, having worked as a classroom monitor of related disciplines during graduation. Holds experience in the research of chronic liver diseases, having studied the effects of Resveratrol for the treatment of reduction of Hepatic Fibrosis. During this research, it was evaluated the effects of this molecule on the parameters of oxidative stress, cellular integrity, mitochondrial metabolism, autophagy, proliferation/death, gene expression and phenotypic modulation of hepatic stellate cells (HSC). Completed a postdoctoral internship at the Postgraduate Program in Science Education: Chemistry of Life and Health at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), where he worked as a collaborating professor linked to the research line "Scientific Education: Processes of Teaching and Learning at School, University and Research Laboratory", in a research project that sought to bring the academic research environment closer to the practice of teaching science and neuroscience in schools. He also worked as a collaborating professor at the Graduate Program in Biological Sciences: Biochemistry (UFRGS), working with immunocytochemistry, immunohistochemistry and cell morphological analysis, using confocal fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry tools. Currently, he is doing a Post-Doctoral internship at the Postgraduate Program in Biological Sciences: Physiology (UFRGS), working on a research that aims to establish molecular markers to determine the aggressiveness of Prostate Cancer.
