Dr. Malafaia (Guilherme) is a Department of Biological Sciences Professor at Goiano Federal Institute of Education, Science, and Technology (Goiás State, Brazil). He received a bachelor's and master's degree from the Federal University of Ouro Preto (Brazil) and a doctorate from the Federal University of Goiás (Brazil). Atualmente, têm sete estágio de pós-doutorado em universidades do Brasil, Bangladesh, Egito e India, all related to Environmental and Biological Sciences. He coordinates the Laboratory of Toxicology Applied to the Environment, focusing on the ecotoxicological assessment of emerging pollutants, including micro(nano)plastics, nanomaterials, nanofibers, pesticides, drug residues, etc. The ongoing research projects in his lab use different animal species as model systems (e.g., mice, zebrafish, guppy, Amazon turtle, tadpole, Japanese quails, mosquito larvae, earthworms, and dragonfly larvae, in addition to aquatic and native plants from Brazilian Cerrado). He has published over 315 journal papers and several books. In addition, he has served as a reviewer for more than 170 international journals. He is an advisor for scientific initiation (undergraduate students), master's, doctorate, and post-doctoral internships. He is part of the Editorial Board of renowned international journals, such as the Journal of Hazardous Materials, Science of The Total Environment, Aquatic Toxicology, Journal of Hazardous Materials Advances, Environmental Sciences Europe, Water Emerging Contaminants & Nanoplastics, Frontiers in Marine Science, Frontiers in Physiology, among others.
