I am a freshwater ecologist focused on biodiversity conservation within tropical ecosystems. My main research investigates how land use changes impact stream fauna in human-altered Amazonian landscapes. I am also interested in how science can inform and guide management and conservation strategies for freshwater ecosystems.
