In this research, Lucas traces a genealogy of the development of the hormone testosterone, reflecting on its importance for sexuality and gender studies.

These tensions also lead to reflections such as: do the uses of testosterone represent bodily autonomy for individuals or standardizations that generate huge profits for the pharmacological industries?<br>The book was a semi-finalist for the 1st Academic Jabuti Prize 2024, in the Anthropology, Sociology, Demography, Political Science and International Relations category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tramontano has a degree in Pharmacy from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (2009), a master&#8217;s degree (2012) and a doctorate (2017) in Collective Health from the Institute of Social Medicine of the State University of Rio de Janeiro (IMS-UERJ), in the area of Human Sciences and Health.<br>Get to know his master&#8217;s thesis <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bdtd.uerj.br:8443\/bitstream\/1\/4098\/1\/Dissertacao%20Lucas%20Tramontano.pdf\">\u201cKeep swimming: on testosterone, ageing and masculinity\u201d <\/a>and his doctoral thesis <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bdtd.uerj.br:8443\/bitstream\/1\/4779\/1\/Tese%20Lucas%20Tramontano.pdf\">\u201cTestosterone: the multiple faces of a molecule\u201d<\/a>, both developed by Lucas Tramontano at IMS\/UERJ and supervised by Professor Jane Russo (CLAM\/IMS\/UERJ).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Venue: IMS Auditorium, room 6012, Block E, 6th floor, Rio de Janeiro State University, Maracan\u00e3 Campus.
