About
From studying albatrosses and petrels on fishing boats off the Brazilian coast, a stint as environmental officer in Antarctica, to currently working on marine ecology of Little penguins, I am a marine biologist involved with seabird ecology as part of a small but very active penguin ecosystem research centre at Phillip Island Nature Parks, Australia.
Together with collaborators from all continents, I have been studying how a top marine predator responds to natural changes in the marine system and ways to predict their response to future environmental changes, using Little penguins as case study.
I am enthusiastic about open source journals (I am in the editorial board of two) and the revolution of R free software in science.
My passions include things that move on two wheels that can take me to places where I can sit down, have a nice latte and a baguette while being amazed by human behaviour.
