I am a Brazilian ecologist and National Geography Explorer interested in tropical forest ecology, with emphasis in plant ecophysiology and tropical ecosystems sensitivity/responses to environmental change.

I am currently a postdoc research fellow at Uppsala University, Sweden, where I was awarded the King Carl XVI Gustaf Foundation's prize for outstanding early-career researchers.
