Prof. Viviane Faleiro | Experimental Methods | Women Researcher Award

Professor | Universidade Estácio de Sá | Brazil

Prof. Viviane Faleiro is an accomplished academic and researcher renowned for her innovative contributions to health sciences through advanced Experimental Methods. As a lecturer and researcher at Universidade Estácio de Sá and Universidade Salgado de Oliveira, she has built a distinguished career centered on Experimental Methods in exercise physiology, metabolism, and occupational well-being. Her research integrates Experimental Methods to explore the physiological mechanisms underlying exercise performance, energy metabolism, and workplace health. Through her work at the Exercise Physiology Laboratory (LAFIEX), she employs precise Experimental Methods to analyze post-exercise oxygen consumption, lipid oxidation, and recovery processes, contributing to a deeper understanding of metabolic adaptations to various training protocols. Prof. Viviane Faleiro’s scientific achievements include publications in leading journals such as Sports (MDPI) and Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology, where she has effectively applied Experimental Methods to demonstrate the superiority of high-intensity and circuit training in enhancing metabolic efficiency. Her collaborations with prominent researchers at Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UERJ) and UNISUAM highlight her commitment to interdisciplinary research, where Experimental Methods serve as a bridge between scientific rigor and practical application. Her consultancy work at INOOVA Assessoria Esportiva further extends her influence beyond academia, integrating Experimental Methods into health promotion and sports performance programs that impact public and private sector initiatives, including the Maricá Cidade Olímpica project. Her continued engagement with scientific publication and international collaboration reflects her role as a global advocate for the use of Experimental Methods in advancing human performance and occupational health research. With a growing presence in citation databases and an expanding body of peer-reviewed work, Prof. Viviane Faleiro exemplifies scientific precision, innovation, and dedication. Her commitment to applying Experimental Methods in every aspect of her research underscores her impact on developing evidence-based strategies for training, rehabilitation, and inclusive physical education, contributing significantly to the global advancement of exercise and health sciences.
