Leonardo Alexandre Peyré-Tartaruga
Summary
I grew up in the south Brazil, alternating times between Montevideo (Uruguay) and Porto Alegre (Brazil). Crossing the Pampas several times made me deeply interested in nature and biology. After, I joined my passion for sports and movement to the area of biology. Last year, after 17 years as Assistent and Associate Professor in the UFRGS (Brazil), I moved to Pavia, and currently I am Professor UniPV, Italy. I am interested in minima, maxima and others optima in terrestrial locomotion & Sports Sciences. The pathological gait is a very interesting area to apply basic concepts of human locomotion. I am very proud to study and principally, to change life in the Parkinson projects. Also, and most important, the study on mechanical determinants of locomotion performance and economy is my passion.
