I am a biologist interested in how complex phenotypes evolve. To answer this question I use a combination of both empirical and theoretical approaches. I graduated from the University of the State of São Paulo (2007) and got my PhD. from the University of São Paulo (2016). I have experience in morphological evolution and quantitative genetics.

Intraspecific morphological variation is both the fuel for evolution and essential to understand how individuals establish and perform interspecific interactions. The unprecedented biodiversity crisis leads us in a tight spot if we want to understand 1) if populations can cope with rapid environmental change and 2) the impact of the decrease of populations' morphological variation in the …
Urbanization is one of the biggest threats to wildlife worldwide as it represents a key factor in land- use changes in biodiversity hotspots, particularly in Tropical rainforests. As urbanization intensifies and tends to grow exponentially in the next century, if we aim to build cities that can preserve biodiversity and essential ecosystem services it is essential to understand the mechan…
The Atlantic Forest is one of the world's richest and most endangered tropical forests. Despite ongoing threats, numerous species persist in this biome, showcasing diverse responses to habitat modification. Generally, a trend is observed wherein there is a decline in the population of many specialists, accompanied by the proliferation of a few generalists-a process referred to as biotic h…
Coevolution, the evolutionary change caused by reciprocal selection imposed by interacting species, can influence phenotypic evolution, species diversification and the organization of biological communities. In the last few years, several mathematical models were developed in order to elucidate the mechanisms behind coevolutionary dynamics. Most of those models describe how a single pheno…
The mammal collection of the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology at Berkeley (MVZ) has a broad collection of California's mammals. Almost 100 years ago, its first director, Joseph Grinnell, collected extensively throughout California, carefully recording details, such as the collection site and habitat for each specimen collected. In 2003, the MVZ started the "Grinnell Project" which is consiste…
