Taxonomy, evolution and mathematics

I am an advanced Biology student from Argentina, currently based in Buenos Aires. I am completing my undergraduate thesis at the Laboratory of Biogeography and Systematics of Peracarida Crustaceans (UBA) where my main focus is on the systematics of the isopod genus Edotia.

I have a strong interest in how mathematical models can shed light on biological problems, particularly in the fields of evolutionary biology and systematics. My training includes elective coursework in Algebra, Linear Algebra, Analysis and Theoretical Systematics. I aim to pursue a PhD in Mathematical Biology, integrating quantitative approaches into the study of evolutionary and biogeographic patterns.

I’m currently looking for exciting opportunities for my PhD! Do not hesitate to contact me if you are interested in my work.

Beyond my academic work, I am passionate about science communication. I enjoy designing original material for stands and talks, and have created videos and other audiovisual resources to bring biology closer to a wider audience.

On this site, you can find my research experience and publications, as well as the outreach activities and publications I took part in.
