PeerJ Author & Reviewer

Summary

Doctor in biology, working with ecology, behavior and taxonomy of land planarians. My work during my undergaduate, master's and PhD research focused on the diet and predatory behavior of land planarians from several perspectives, including niche partitioning, prey detection, prey capture, predator avoidance, ecomorphology and development.
I am also a translator of academic texts from Portuguese to English and English to Portuguese.
I believe that science and knowledge, in general, should be accessible to everyone.
