I graduated in Physics (1989) at the Instituto
de
Física (UFRGS) and obtained my
M.Sc. (1991) and Ph.D. (1995) degrees in the same institution. I spent some
time as a post-doc fellow at the Università
di Napoli (Italy) and, later on, as a visiting researcher at the
Université Pierre et Marie Curie (Paris). I'm now a full professor at
the IF-UFRGS and a CNPq IB researcher. Get an updated online
