Nilton Erbet Lincopan Huenuman is a Professor Livre-Docente in the Department of Microbiology at the Institute of Biomedical Sciences of Universidade de São Paulo. He earned a bachelor's degree in Medical Technology from the Universidad Austral de Chile in 1996, followed by a master's degree and a doctorate in Pharmaceutical Sciences with a focus on Clinical Analysis from Universidade de São Paulo. He completed postdoctoral training in Biochemistry at the Institute of Chemistry of Universidade de São Paulo.

His research centers on mechanisms of antimicrobial resistance in human and veterinary medicine, with an emphasis on the One Health interface involving humans, animals, and the environment. This includes genomic surveillance of resistant bacteria and the evaluation of therapeutic alternatives such as nanoparticles and controlled-release systems. He founded and coordinates the OneBR platform, the first integrated genomic database for antimicrobial resistance surveillance in Latin America. Lincopan serves as an advisor in the graduate programs in Microbiology at ICB-USP, Pharmacy at FCF-USP, and Experimental and Comparative Pathology at FMVZ-USP. He is a member of the Câmara Técnica de Resistência Microbiana (CATREM) at ANVISA, the Comitê Brasileiro de Teste de Sensibilidade a Antimicrobianos (BrCast) Veterinary Medicine Subcommittee, and the WHO Expert Group on the global AMR research agenda in human health.
