I am a biologist, specialized in Ecology (MSc) and Zoology (PhD). My main interest is to work for the conservation of neotropical biomes, focusing on generating knowledge about the evolution, ecology and population dynamics of vertebrates in the forests of South America (mainly the Atlantic Forest and the Amazon), prioritizing the integration of traditional peoples and resident populations of these biomes in the research activities that I develop. I am specialist in analyzing ecological and evolutionary data, as well as interpreting and translating results into accessible language and in specialized publications (peer-reviewed). I find it easy to work in a team, as well as coordinating multidisciplinary projects. I am proficient in R and Shell (Linux) programming languages, where I develop various activities such as: database management, basic and multivariate statistics, ecological niche modeling, GIS, quantitative genetic analysis, phylogenies and graphics production. I speak, read and understand Portuguese (native), English (advanced) and Spanish (advanced). (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Over the last few years, the monitoring of wildlife using radiotelemetry techniques has become one of the most important and widely used tools in conservation biology studies. However, the batteries present in the transmitters available in the market today increase the equipment's weight, have a short lifespan, and may leak, causing stress to the monitored animal. The present project aims…
Over the last few years, monitoring wild animals using radiotelemetry has become one of the most important and most used tools in conservation biology studies. The present project aims to develop a new methodology for animal telemetry, using a technology currently present in the identification of different types of objects called Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). The development of t…
How and when did the evolution of biological megadiversity take place in the Amazon? This is one of the most contentious issues in neotropical biogeography, being discussed since the XIX century. Regarding reptiles and amphibians, one of the few consensual ideas on this subject is that the taxonomic diversity as currently described is underestimated. Phylogeographic analyses highlighted s…
