Ansioluettelo

I am a biologist with a PhD in Entomology from Universidade de São Paulo, Brazil. My interests go in 5 main directions: 1) Curation of a scientific collection of soft-bodied hexapodes, with a focus on Collembola; 2) Taxonomy, systematics and biogeography of soil arthropods using morphological and molecular data; 3) Morphological and functional study of arthropods, using microscopy techniques for 3D reconstructions, such as confocal microscopy and micro tomography; 4) Biomechanical study of invertebrates; 5) Scientific communication aimed at different audiences, and the use of children's literature as a tool.
