Fernando Segato is an Associate Professor in the Department of Biotechnology at the Engineering School of Lorena at the University of São Paulo, Brazil. He received his Ph.D. in Molecular Biology and Genetics of Microorganisms from the Ribeirão Preto School of Medicine at the University of São Paulo. Dr. Segato has worked as a post-doc at Oklahoma State University on developing designer of expression systems for hyper-protein production. He has also worked as a researcher for the Technical Research Center of Finland--VTT, in molecular biology area and was a visiting professor at the University of Nebraska at Lincoln. His research focuses on prospection of hydrolytic and oxidative enzymes applied in lignocellulose depolymerization, exploration of thermophilic fungal genomes, and improvement of fungal cell factories to produce proteins of biotechnological interest. Dr. Segato has published 48 peer-reviewed papers in highly reputed journals and 4 book chapters. He has presented his work in more than 52 national and international conferences, and he has part
