Antonio Claudio Tedesco received his Ph.D. in Organic Photochemistry from the University of São Paulo (USP), Brazil, in 1992. He completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Harvard Medical School (1993–1995) in Photobiology and Photomedicine and a sabbatical at the University of Paris V/INSERM (2004–2005) in Tissue Engineering. From 2016 to 2017, he served as USP's representative for International Affairs at Université Sorbonne Paris Cité, France. He is currently a Full Professor at USP, where he conducts research in Photobiology, Photomedicine, Cancer, Neurodegenerative Diseases, Tissue Engineering, Nanotechnology, and Drug Delivery Systems. Since 1999, he has coordinated clinical and translational research projects in Photodynamic Therapy at major Brazilian institutions, including USP, UnB-HRAN, and UNIFESP. Professor Tedesco has published more than 400 scientific papers, over 470 conference contributions, 19 book chapters, and has developed 17 technological products, six of which are registered. He has delivered more than 60 invited lectures and has supervised over 50 undergraduate researchers, 27 Master's students, 28 Ph.D. candidates, and 24 postdoctoral fellows. His research focuses on Cancer, Photodynamic Therapy, Tissue Engineering, Nanotechnology, Magnetic Carriers, Drug Delivery Systems, 5-Aminolevulinic Acid, and Aluminum Chloride Phthalocyanine. Throughout his career, he has collaborated with more than 650 researchers worldwide and currently coordinates several nationa
