Professor at the University of São Paulo. Bachelor's degree in Physics from the University of São Paulo (1986), a Master's in Physics from the University of São Paulo (1989) and a PhD in Physics from the University of São Paulo (1994). Has experience in Applied Physics, with emphasis on Applied Nuclear Physics with Accelerators and analysis with ion beams. Currently works on the subject of Archaeometry in the study and characterization of art objects and cultural heritage using non-destructive spectroscopic and imaging techniques. Develops research projects with the University of São Paulo Museums and São Paulo Museums such as Pinacoteca, FAAP, MASP, Casa Portinari, etc. Coordinator of the Laboratory of Archaeometry and Sciences Applied to Cultural Heritage at the Institute of Physics at USP (LACAPC - IFUSP), Coordinator of the Research Center for Applied Physics to the Study of Artistic and Historical Heritage (NAP-FAEAH). Professor at the Pos-Graduate Program in Physics (since 2001) and at the Interunits in Museology/PPGMus/USP (since 2015). Member of the Brazilian Society of Physics - SBF and of the ANTECIPA (National Association for Research in Technology and Heritage Science: Science, Technology and Innovation for the Study and Preservation of Cultural Heritage).

Acquisition of equipment for the installation of the Center for the Study of Material Heritage at USP, which is justified by the need to expand interdisciplinary research activities linked to the science of heritage at the University of São Paulo, essential for the preservation of its artistic and cultural collections material and documents, consolidating new areas of material heritage pr…
This research project aims at the discussion of metholodogies in the management and handling of museological collections. In this sense, its central study object is what we call the curatorial cycle, which contrary to the notion of curatorship (in the way that nowadays it has been defined by its practice in the field of art) involves a chain of procedures and practices inside museums, fro…

The growing need to understand the materiality present in cultural heritage objects has allowed the study and characterization of different materials objects. However, it is increasingly necessary to establish reliable and scientifically based analysis methodologies in the field of heritage sciences. In this sense, the present work proposes the union of spectroscopic techniques in the inf…
The relationship between life and the environment offers several perspectives in the study of the geological record, and Brazilian fossils are of worldwide importance in this discussion. Currently, the most innovative approach to test hypotheses concerning those issues is the use of Palaeometry, that is, imaging, spectroscopic, and geochemical techniques that make it possible to extract i…
The project is to study and characterize materials of cultural heritage objects by different analytical and spectroscopic techniques. The objective is to obtain information about the materials used, the creative process of the artists and the current state of conservation of the objects from the collections of the USP's Museums.

The Ediacaran-Cambrian transition (ca. 541 Ma, or younger) witnessed profound palaeobiological innovations concerning metazoans (animals), such as predation, motility and biomineralisation, that inaugurated ecological interactions that impacted evolution through the Phanerozoic (<ca. 541 Ma). The drivers of biomineralisation, as well as its impacts on ecology, environment, and biogeochemi…
