Teaching and Student Training

I teach undergraduate and graduate students in ecology, biodiversity, scientific programming and data science, while also making open educational materials available to the scientific community.

Simple classroom setting
University Teaching

Courses Taught

At the Federal University of Bahia, I have taught undergraduate and graduate courses in ecology, biostatistics, scientific programming and geographic information systems.

Ecology

Courses focused on the ecological processes that structure populations, communities and ecosystems.

Population Ecology
Community Ecology
Ecology and Society

Biostatistics

Statistical methods applied to biological, ecological and evolutionary data.

Introduction to Research Methods in Ecology and Applications

Scientific Programming

Training in programming and data analysis using modern tools for scientific research.

R programming applied to biodiversity studies

Geographic Information Systems (GIS)

Geospatial methods applied to ecology, conservation and biogeography.

Open Knowledge

Scientific training should extend beyond the classroom. For this reason, a substantial part of the material produced for my courses is made freely available through courses, videos and online resources, expanding access to knowledge for students and researchers across institutions and countries.
