I am a biologist, specialized in Ecology (MSc) and Zoology (PhD). I have knowledge of the Amazonian socio-environmental reality, having lived in Manaus for 9 years and having participated and coordinated multidisciplinary projects in the region for the last 18 years, in conserved regions as well as in threatened regions, such as in the arc of deforestation. 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, 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…
Lizards of genus Leposoma are conspicuous components of herpetofauna from tropical forests of South and Central America. Currently two monophyletic species groups are recognized for Leposoma: the scincoides and parietale groups. Both are allopatric, with scincoides group associated with Brazilian Atlantic Forest and restrict to the east portion of South America and parietale group occurri…
