My research focuses on Community Ecology, exploring the evolutionary and ecological processes that shape biodiversity. Additionally, I develop analytical tools and algorithms for biological data analysis, with projects spanning theoretical ecology, the biogeography of the Amazon, macroecology, and conservation.I graduated in Biological Sciences from the Federal University of Santa Maria (2008), earned a master's degree in Entomology from the National Institute of Amazonian Research (2010), and completed a Ph.D. in Biology/Ecology at the University of Vermont, USA (2015).I pursued post-doctoral research in Ecology at the Federal University of Mato Grosso (2015) and the Federal University of Goiás (2016). I also served as a DTI fellow in the Biodiversity Research Program (PPBio) at the National Institute of Amazonian Research and in the National Institute of Science and Technology - Ecology, Evolution, and Conservation of Biodiversity at the Federal University of Goiás (INCT - EECBio/CNPq).Currently, I hold the position of Associate Professor at the Federal University of Santa Maria (RS), where I supervise students in undergraduate research, master's, and doctoral programs. I teach courses such as Population and Community Ecology, Biostatistics, Field Course, and Hierarchical and Bayesian Models applied to Ecology.For more details about my research, visit www.csdambros.com.
