He has specializations in methods and management in food preservation and in teaching chemistry, both from the Brazilian Union of Colleges UNIBF (2022). He holds a Master's degree (2016) and a PhD (2018) in Food Science and Technology (UFPA). His thesis focused on the extraction of essential oils from different plant matrices using supercritical fluid (CO2) and conventional methods. He completed a Postdoctoral internship in the Postgraduate Program in Biological Sciences, with an emphasis on Tropical Botany at UFRA/MPEG (2023-2025). Dr. Oliveira has 253 academic (scientific) papers, including 120 articles in international journals. He has published 13 books, 12 of which are internationally recognized, with renowned publishers such as Bentham Science, IntechOpen, De Gruyter, CRC Press Taylor Francis and Springer Nature, in addition to having contributed with 58 chapters of international books and 62 abstracts at conferences. His work includes areas such as extraction of secondary metabolites from medicinal and aromatic plants using supercritical fluid, hydrodistillation, steam distillation and solvent extraction, in addition to experience in separation methods using classical chromatography (open column) and thin layer chromatography. Dr. Oliveira is a specialist in natural product chemistry, with an emphasis on essential oils and identification of secondary metabolites, using modern analytical techniques. His research interests include food science and technology, prospecting of volatile bioactive molecules, biotechnology of natural products, allelopathy and applications in agriculture searching for new allelochemicals, in pharmacology searching for (antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, antiparasitic, anti-inflammatory and phytotherapeutic) and medicinal applications such as (antiproliferative, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory) with in vitro, in vivo and in silico studies. In addition, Dr. Oliveira has international partnerships with researchers of different nationalities, such as those from the University of Monastir, Tunisia; Food Research Institute, China; Institute of Agro-Products Processing and Nuclear Agricultural Technology, China; University College Ghent, Belgium; Iuliu Hatieganu University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Romania; G. B. Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, India, Quaid-i-Azam University Islamabad, Pakistan, Università degli Studi di Milano, Italy, etc..., Dr. Oliveira was a permanent professor of the Postgraduate Program in Biological Sciences, with an emphasis on Tropical Botany at the Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi (MPEG) in a network with the Universidade Federal Rural da Amazônia (UFRA) where he graduated 3 masters. He is also a collaborating professor of the Postgraduate Program in Food Science and Technology and is currently a Full Visiting Professor at the Postgraduate Program in Pharmaceutical Sciences at UFPA. His editorial experience is vast; he was an ambassador for Bentham Science Publishers and an academic mentor for Web of Science, in addition to acting as a reviewer of more than 616 articles for approximately 90 international journals. Dr. Oliveira is on the editorial board of international journals, including Future Integrative Medicine, Plos One, The Natural Products Journal, International Journal of Food Science, Advances in Pharmacological and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Open Chemistry, Associate Editor of Frontiers in Pharmacology, Special Associate Editor of Frontiers in Nutrition, Molecules, Journal of Food Quality, Journal Herbal Medicine, Letters in Functional Foods, Discover Molecules and Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology. To date, he has edited over 300 scientific articles and has an H-index of 25 in Web of Science, 25 in Scopus and 33 in Google Scholar.
