Biography
Born in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. BSc. in physics at Instituto de Física, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (www.if.ufrgs.br). PhD in physics at the same Institution, under the advise of Dr. Sebastián Gonçalves (http://www.if.ufrgs.br/~sebas/). My thesis was entitled "Dinâmica de epidemias: efeitos do atraso e das interações entre agentes" (Epidemic dynamics: effects of delays and agents interactions). During my PhD, I had the opportunity to collaborate with Dr. V. M. Kenkre, during a two months visit to the Consortium of the Americas for Interdisciplinary Science (Albuquerque, NM, USA) and Dr. Marcelo Kuperman and Dr. Guillermo Abramson from the Centro Atómico Bariloche (San Carlos de Bariloche, Río Negro, Argentina), where I have been twice during my PhD studies.
Substitute Professor at the Physics Department of the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul in 2011.
His research interests focuses on population dynamics, epidemic modeling, complex networks and agent mobility modeling with focus on the effects of different characteristic times distributions on the temporal evolution of spread, epidemic threshold and stability of the endemic state.
