Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP). Instituto de Biologia (IB) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Biologist with master's degree and Ph.D. in Genetics and Molecular Biology in the State University of Campinas. Researcher in Bioinformatics since 2013, with a strong background in molecular evolution, comparative genomics and big-data analysis. I currently manage and participate in comparative genomics and transcriptomics projects in an evolutionary view to identify possible adaptations in phenotypic traits of interest. My main work is focused on yeast traits important for bioethanol production, but I'm also working on the evolution of pathogenic traits in bacteria and fungi and disease-related traits in the human genome.

Moniliophthora perniciosa and M. roreri are among the few Agaricales species that evolved a phytopatogenecity life style. Both species are cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) pathogens, responsible for two serious and economically relevant diseases: witch's broom and pod rot. The presence of only few plant pathogens on related groups, the relative short divergence time, and the high variability fo…
