Electronics and Telecommunications Technician (ITJ-Jacareí-SP-1982). Graduated in Physics and Astronomy from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (1988), master's degree (1991) and doctorate (1995) in Astrophysics and Space Science from INPE with research carried out at the University of Maryland, USA (SW-CNPq scholarship) from Nov 1993 to Nov 1995. He completed his post-doctorate in Computational Space Physics at Nagoya University (1997) under the sponsorship of FAPESP. He created the Center for Simulation and Analysis of Complex Systems at the Associated Laboratory of Computing and Applied Mathematics (LAC) at INPE as a young researcher FAPESP's fellow at (1998-2002). He is a full employee in CT at the Coordination of Applied Research and Technological Development (COPDT), admitted in 2002, 40 hours, where he also works as a professor of the Applied Computing Program (CAP-INPE). He has already supervised around 50 projects (master's and doctorate) at CAP. He was CAP PG Coordinator (2003-2004 / 2012-2013) and deputy head of LAC (2012-2013). Former general secretary of SBMAC (2003-2005). He is a founding member of the Pan American Association for Interdisciplinary Computational Sciences (PACIS). Chair of COSPAR (2012/2014/2016). He was a member of the advisory committee for evaluating the FAPESP PIPE Program (2016-2019). He has experience in the area of Space Sciences and Technologies, with an emphasis on Applied Computing, working mainly on the following topics: Statistical Physics of Complex Systems, Computational Physics for Simulation and Analysis of Nonlinear Processes, Big Data and Artificial Intelligence Technologies. For the last eight years he has been dedicated to Computational Space Physics and AI for EdTech, with a focus on Data Science and HPC. He works in RD with a predominantly interdisciplinary profile, having published around 100 articles in international journals and 02 books. He collaborates on projects with institutional partnerships in Brazil and abroad, with emphasis on applied computing (machine learning and neurocomputing applied to space physics and environmental physics). He is Principal Investigator (PI) of the PIPE-FAPESP Project (Process No. 21/15114-8). He is a member of the COPDT-INPE-MCTI advisory committee since september 2023. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)
