Biologist, researcher in plant genomics and evolution. BS and MSc in Biology (University of Sao Paulo, Brazil), and PhD in Plant Biology (University of Sheffield, UK). Worked as a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the University of Sheffield, and as Senior Bioinformatician in the private sector. Currently works as MSCA Research Fellow at the University of Toulouse (France). Experienced in comparative genomics, phylogenetics and molecular evolution of plants, particularly in topics such as C4 photosynthesis, and macro and microevolution of grasses (Poaceae). Interested in the identification of the genetic basis and in the evolution of plant adaptive traits. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Strong evidences indicate that the atmospheric CO2 is rising and it will reach high levels until the end of this century, even if the CO2 emissions from humans stabilize on the current levels. The ecological consequence of this event has a deep relationship with the plant physiology, once that elevated CO2 and warming influences directly the dynamics of fundamental processes, as photosynt…
Given the richness of plant species in Brazil, knowledge of the physiology of native plants under stressful environmental conditions is a major step towards diversification of reforestation on the recovery of degraded areas and the suit to environmental laws. When subjected to extreme environmental conditions, such as water shortage or excess of sun radiation, plants have altered their ph…
Plant carbon balance results from the interaction among photosynthesis, photorespiration and mitochondrial respiration, and tightly depends on the environmental conditions. It is known that light partially inhibits mitochondrial respiration, and some authors have proposed that this phenomena is associated with photorespiration. In spite of its major significance for the integrative unders…
