Genetica
For my undergraduate research at the Universidade Nacional da Amazônia Peruana (UNAP-Peru) i studied population genetics and venom protein evolution of Peruvian Bothrops. For my Masters at the Universidade Federal do Amazonas- UFAM, Brazil in Biological Diversity program i worked on the taxonomy and systematics of the species of the bufonid genus Amazophrynella. I worked with Amphibians in my Ph.D. using the genus Amazophrynella to reveal the hidden diversity of amphibians in neotropics and the evolutionary patterns in Amazonian diversification in the joint INPA/UFAM Genetics, Conservation and Evolutionary Biology program. Im currently pos-doc in Zoology in UFAM.
