Reuber Antoniazzi, PhD
Hi from the canopy
|
Some of my interests in biology and ecology are animal-plant interactions, micro-habitat use, and spatio-temporal distribution of species (including on different vertical strata of forests). Also, I am very interested in complex networks, because I always thought that individuals are interconnected with each other in all kinds of environments around the Earth. |

About me
Welcome!
Hi! I am Reuber and here I will tell you a little about my experiences.
At my first steps as an undergraduate, I started to work in a project with ants led by professor Sérvio Ribeiro (2007), and concomitantly, he taught me how to climb trees (I already climbed rocks at this time), and since then I have been enchanted by the canopy. Then, I started to work with canopy ants as an undergraduate with Sérvio Ribeiro and Renata Campos, and also in my Master degree with Frederico Neves and Sérvio Ribeiro. You will find more details about my education here.
In 2016, I traveled to Mexico to do my PhD at Instiuto de Ecología A.C. (INECOL) with Wesley Dáttilo and Maurice Leponce (co-advisors); I finished my PhD at Oct. 16, 2020. My PhD project involved behaviour, spatial distribution, and ant-tree co-occurrences on the canopy and understorey; all dataset was obtained by myself in a Mexican tropical rain forest (at Los Tuxtlas biology station).
I am really excited for the next steps to come in my academic career, I hope I can keep asking broad ecological questions, and I am motivated to adquire new skills and knowledge as well.
If you are interested in my work, have any proposal for collaboration, or a work opportunity, please contact me.
Let's do science together!
