I am a professor at the Center for Mathematics, Computing and Cognition, in UFABC, the Federal University of ABC, in Santo André, São Paulo, Brazil. I teach computer science courses and work with the development of methods for problems involving graphs, machine learning, specially in the biology, and pharmacology field. I completed my BSc, MSc and Phd degrees in Computer Science at the Institute of Mathematics and Statistics (IME) at University of Sao Paulo (USP), where I developed computational and statistical methods for analyzing random graphs and studied their asymptotic behavior. I applied them to the analysis of gene co-expression networks and brain functional networks. I was a postdoc fellow at School of Applied Mathematics (EMap) at Getúlio Vargas Foundation (FGV), where I worked with computational biology and used strategies from network medicine and collaborative filtering.

The corpus callosum is the largest white matter structure of the human brain. One of its functions is to facilitate the interaction between the left and right hemispheres. Abnormalities in the corpus callosum morphology have been reported in several neuropsychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia, autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, alien hand syndrome, personality disorde…
The brain's structural and functional systems, protein-protein interaction, and gene networks are just some examples of biological systems that share some features of complex networks, such as highly connected nodes, modularity, and small-world topology. Recent studies indicate that some pathologies present topological network alterations relative to the general population. Therefore, met…
Graph theory has applications in several domains. For example, in molecular biology graphs may represent protein-protein interaction networks or gene regulatory networks; and in neuroscience they are used to study brain functional networks. As real world networks usually present intrinsic fluctuations (for example, brain functional networks vary across time and individuals under the same …
