I am a scientist, trained as an evolutionary ecologist. Biology BSc (1995), MSc (1999) and PhD (2004) at the University of Coimbra. I am an Assistant Professor at the University of Lisbon, Integrated Member of the cE3c Research Centre and Curator of the Bird Collection at the National Museum of Science and Natural History of the University of Lisbon (MUHNAC) and invited Curator of the Bird Collection of the Museum of Natural History and Science of the University of Porto (MHNC-UP). Most of my work uses birds as models to study the importance of key traits on the evolution and long-term conservation of biodiversity. In recent years these range from coloration and trophic interactions to host-parasite systems. As Curator, I work on enhancing the value of avian specimens for research. I mainly work with isolated, insular, fragmented, migratory and domesticated model species, especially in Iberia, North Africa and Macaronesia (from Azores to Cabo Verde).
