Senior Scientist · NVIDIA
Professor Emeritus · Florida Atlantic University
I work at NVIDIA, where I drive global collaborations at the intersection of accelerated computing, medical AI, and healthcare research. My technical expertise centers on the intelligent processing of visual information - bridging computer vision, machine learning, and human visual perception - to accelerate complex scientific and clinical workflows.
Prior to joining NVIDIA, I built a quarter-century academic career, culminating in my current status as a Professor Emeritus of Engineering and Computer Science at Florida Atlantic University. During my academic tenure, I led extensive research initiatives backed by the NSF, ONR, and DoD, and mentored 27 graduate students to completion.
I am a native Portuguese speaker, fluent in English and Spanish, and conversant in French. This multilingual background allows me to seamlessly navigate international research consortiums, foster cross-border scientific collaborations, and drive global AI initiatives.
