Since the conclusion of my graduation I have been working in research, extension and conservation actions involving freshwater and marine fish in different regions of Brazil and neighboring countries. I have a history of leadership, collaboration and funding of projects supported by non-governmental organizations, privative companies and government funding agencies. My work seeks to generate results applied to the management and conservation of natural resources, always combined with education, engagement of people in the community and local development.

In the present study we will adopt an interdisciplinary approach to elucidate different aspects related to the taxonomy and the natural history of the wolf fish, Hoplias lacerdae, a large species occurring in the Ribeira river basin, in São Paulo, and in the Uruguay river basin, in southern Brazil and in neighboring countries such as Uruguay and Argentina. The research will include: (i) a…
Although freshwater and transitional systems have been found as the most threatened environments in the world due to anthropogenic actions (e.g., disorderly occupation, effluent discharges from agriculture and deforestation), there is still a large gap that needs to be addressed, with data that promote the conservation of areas of occurrence of species with restricted taxonomic and geogra…
The African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, is an exotic species in the Ribeira river basin. As observed in other Brazilian basins, the species is considered very strong and with great potential of invasion. While without natural predators in Brazil, the African catfish reproduces quickly and feeds on many native species, causing disturbances in the food chain. In the Ribeira river basin the…
Although the science of catch-and-release is well established, almost all literature comes from countries in North America, Europe and Australia, making it difficult to generalize the effects of this practice on all species of fish, especially from Brazil. In this context, the general objective of this proposal will be to carry out an integrated study to assess the impacts of catch-and-re…
