I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics at the Federal University of Sergipe (UFS), Brazil. My research lies in gravitation and cosmology, with a particular focus on dark energy, dark matter, and galaxy formation and evolution. I also use cosmological N-body and hydrodynamical simulations, as well as data analysis and machine learning techniques, to address these questions.
