Universidade de São Paulo (USP). Instituto de Biociências (IB) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal) Birthplace: Brazil
Biologist with a Master's and Ph.D. in General Physiology from the Institute of Biosciences at the University of São Paulo (IB-USP). She is currently a postdoctoral researcher at IB-USP with a FAPESP fellowship. Her research focuses on the ecophysiology of sharks and rays, with an emphasis on energy metabolism, reproduction, and trophic ecology. In her current project, she uses conservation physiology tools to investigate the influence of reproduction on energy metabolism and trophic ecology, as well as the effects of urbanization and ecotourism on shark health. She is the coordinator and founder of the project Tubarões e Raias de Noronha (linktr.ee/tubaroes.raias.noronha), and vice president of the Instituto Vida no Oceano, which is dedicated to the study and conservation of sharks and rays in the Fernando de Noronha Archipelago through scientific research, education, citizen science, and ecotourism. She also collaborates with the Mantas de Ilhabela and Marine Megafauna projects in the state of São Paulo.

Persistent anthropogenic disturbances such as those resulting from urbanization, habitat degradation and ecotourism are of substantial concern, once chronically stressful conditions can be pathological and negatively affect individual fitness. Long-lived vertebrates that occupy high trophic levels in the food chain, such as sharks, are ideal models for integrated studies of physiological …
Throughout the life cycle, the animals deal with changes in nutritional status associated with changes in the diet, growth, reproduction and migration. Given the diversity in life-history, elasmobranchs become interesting models for the study of relationship between physiology and ecological interactions in the marine environment. Despite recent studies on ecological patterns and physiolo…
The reproductive strategy lipid histrotrophy observed in Myliobatiformes rays, is characterized by the secretion of an histotroph ("uterine milk") substance rich in lipids, proteins and carbohydrates, that are ingested and/or absorbed by the embryo. Phylogenetically, more basal species exhibit a histotroph considerably more dilute with a lower lipid concentration than that found in specie…
