One year after completion of medical school, he defended a doctoral thesis entitled "Radiography of the Down." In the same year he joined the faculty of the School of Medicine of Bahia, acting as assistant Professor. Prado Valadares.

In 1936, he returned to Germany at the invitation of the Institute Ludolf Brauer, to hold conferences.
Inspired by the Professor. Brauer, returned to El Salvador where he created on February 21, 1937, the Ibiti (Brazilian Institute for Tuberculosis Research).
By Ibiti Silveira dedicated his life.
The early years of Ibiti were years of hard work, research and publications, which made the institution an entity known throughout the country.
In 1944, the Ibiti inaugurated its headquarters located in the neighborhood of the Federation, in Salvador.
Since then, Jose Silva has been considered a world-renowned scientist and researcher of great concept.
"Without research there is no science, no science, no study, no teaching without learning, nor reliable practice," he said.

Despite his involvement with European culture, Silveira made a point of stating he was "viscerally Bahia", which is why he refused repeated invitations to work in Rio de Janeiro and Germany.
