Knowledge makes history
Eslen Delanogare’s relationship with knowledge began in 2017, towards the end of his Psychology undergraduate studies in Rio Grande do Sul, when he accessed information about Cognitive-Behavioral Psychology and Neuroscience.
Since 2017, the passion for knowledge has grown with each encounter with new discoveries. In 2018, Eslen moved to Florianópolis – SC, to pursue a master’s degree at the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC), studying and analyzing the effects of environmental enrichment in an animal model of depressive-like behavior induced by dexamethasone, a type of corticosteroid used in the treatment of illnesses such as rheumatism, skin diseases, severe allergies, asthma, among others.
In 2019, he began his doctorate, in which he evaluates metabolic, behavioral, and neurochemical changes in mice with a high-fat diet, and the use of a type of diabetes medication. In 2020, he started practicing as a psychologist, and the following year, he opened his own clinic. With the pandemic, and its subsequent precautionary measures, Eslen transitioned to digital platforms, and invested in science communication, which led to invitations to participate in various podcasts, boosting his reputation as a reference in Psychology and healthy lifestyle.
2022.1, Dopamine Reservoir and Turning Point
In January 2022, Eslen casually launched a community that quickly gained tens of thousands of members, transforming their lives and environments through scientific knowledge. We are talking about the Dopamine Reservoir (RD)*. It is a living community that cannot be quantified or fully understood, as it continues to evolve as this text is being written, and as you read it.
Since then, Eslen has become a disseminator of neuroscience on the Internet, whether through his social media channels, his community, or as a guest on interview podcasts, reaching millions of people. It was also in this year that he launched the Neuroscience and Behavior (NeC*) course, with over three thousand students, as well as his first Group Mentoring and the first edition of the RD* Experience, the in-person gathering of his community, which took place in September, in São Paulo – SP. With this extensive reach, Eslen Delanogare has become nationally recognized as one of Brazil’s foremost promoters of neuroscience and behavioral psychology.
2022.2, BeHealth Clinic and Interdisciplinary Health
To further solidify his scientific vision of Psychology, in July 2022, Eslen teamed up with João Perini, Msc. in Neuroscience, to establish the BeHealth Clinic, a therapeutic environment offering psychiatric, psychotherapeutic, and nutritional treatment in an interdisciplinary manner, providing patients with comprehensive evidence-based care. Currently, the clinic has over 70 professionals, and 2,000 recurring patients, establishing itself as a national reference in mental health. Additionally, the clinic holds workshops and regular meetings for professional development and clinical practice enhancement.
2023, Growth and Science Communication
In 2023, nearing the end of his doctorate, and with the Dopamine Reservoir boasting hundreds of thousands of members, Eslen was determined to spread awareness about the importance of science in shaping a better future for society. This determination led him to launch his own podcast program, the Eslen Podcast, aimed at providing a platform for relevant discussions on various topics. Primarily, the podcast aims to give a voice to academics who can contribute to human knowledge in some way.
2024, InPBE and Evidence-Based Psychotherapy
In 2024, Eslen and João teamed up with another authority in Evidence-Based Psychology: Dr. Jan Luiz Leonardi. Together, they founded the Institute of Evidence-Based Psychology (InPBE | Institute PBE), an organization aimed at spreading evidence-based practices throughout Brazil, enhancing the clinical practice of psychologists, and raising awareness among the population about the importance of treatments based on the best and most recent scientific findings. As the first outcome of this collaboration, they developed the Evidence-Based Psychotherapy Training, a continuing education program for psychology students and professionals designed to teach everything necessary to become a competent, confident, and successful psychologist.
In March 2024, Eslen’s doctoral journey culminates: he defends his thesis titled ‘Metabolic dysfunctions and behavioral changes: evidence of association and preventive strategies in mice.’ Exiting the laboratory’s front door, Eslen emerges as a national reference in science communication, solidifying his legacy in favor of knowledge.
The achievements of Eslen Delanogare, built in conjunction with his community, students, mentees, and patients, continue to unfold beyond the time narrated, as knowledge spreads and perpetuates throughout history.
