Curriculum Vitae

Vítor Martins Conde e Sousa

As a population geneticist with a background in biology, I aim to understand the evolutionary processes that shape observed genomic patterns. In my research I address fundamental evolutionary biology questions from a genomics perspective. Specifically, I am interested in the interplay between recombination, genetic drift, gene flow and natural selection. I combine population genetics theory, statistics and computer programming to develop new bioinformatic tools, with their application to genomic data from natural and experimental populations. I have worked on several population genomics projects, resulting in publications in top journals, e.g. Nature, Science, PLoS Genetics, Molecular Biology and Evolution. These covered several topics in evolutionary biology, ranging from human genomics, speciation (e.g. cichlids, rabbits, Iberian freshwater fish), ecological divergence (e.g. sawfly insects) and genetic basis of adaptation (e.g. deer mice, lizards), to applications in conservation genetics of lemurs and freshwater fish. I regularly present my work at international meetings (SMBE, ESEB), and I am invited to give plenary talks (e.g. Petit Pois Déridé), seminars (e.g. University of Aarhus) and teach at workshops (e.g. Population and Speciation Genomics at Cesky Krumlov). I am also involved in teaching, training, postdoctoral and student supervision (ongoing: 1 postdoc, 4 PhD as main supervisor, 1 PhD as co-supervisor and 2 MSc students; finished: 8 MSc students), as well as in international grant panels (Wellcome Trust, NERC, Swiss National Science Foundation), editorial and reviewing work for more than 20 international journals. I was awarded a Marie Sklodowska-Curie Individual Fellowship from 2018 to 2019, and an Assistant Researcher grant from CEEC2017. Since June 2020 that I am an Assistant Professor at the Department of Animal Biology, Faculdade de Ciências, University of Lisbon. Since 12.2020 that I am a co-PI of a Human Frontier Research Program - Young Research Award (HFSP) project to understand the genomics impact of hybridization, in collaboration with Molly Schumer (Standford University, USA), Chelsea Rochman (University of Toronto, Canada) and Claudia Bank (IEE, University of Bern). Since 01.2022, I am the PI of an FCT project to investigate the response of hybridizing species to climate change. In 12.2023 I was awarded an ERC-Portugal grant.
