Luísa G. Carvalheiro (PI)
did her first degree in Biology at the University of Lisbon (Portugal, 2002) and PhD at the University of Bristol (UK, 2008). After she worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Pretoria/SANBI (South Africa, 2008-2010), the University of Leeds (UK, 2010-2015) & University of Brasilia (Brazil, 2015-2017). From 2010-2016 she was linked to Naturalis Biodiversity Center (Netherlands) as a guest researcher. Currently, she works as an Adjunct Professor at Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG, Brazil), also linked to CE3C (University of Lisbon, Portugal). She acts as an associated Editor for Global Change Biology, Journal of Pollination Ecology and the Journal of Neotropical Biology and was included in the Clarivate Analytics Highly Cited Researchers List in 2018.

Renata Souza (PosDoc)
is a biologist, did her master in Ecology and Biodiversity Conservation (UFMT, Brazil, 2018) and PhD in Ecology and Evolution in UFG (2024). Currently she is a posdoc in the lab linked to the project INPOL (INCT). She is interested in understanding how ecological and evolutionary processes, in the face of the different ongoing environmental changes, can influence the interaction patterns between plants and pollinators in ecological networks.

Bruno F. Marques (MSc)
is graduated in Biology (2021) did is MSc. student in Ecology and Evolution (UFG, Universidade Federal de Goiás, Brazil). He's currently doing his PhD in the lab and he is interested mainly on the effects of global environmental changes on biodiversity, agroecology and restoration ecology, with a focus on the ecology of bees. In the free time, he likes biking and practicing capoeira.
Luiz Henrique Oliveira (MSc)
is graduated in biology (2019) by Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Goiás (PUC Goiás) where he studied Morphometry / Soil use in hidrografic basins. He did is M.Sc student in the lab (2022) where he evaluated how floral resources and frutification are affected by differents inputs of nutrients and he is now doing is PhD to further explore how such impacts propagate to higher trophic levels and change through space. He likes to play rpg games, watch animes, practice Krav magá and in his free times programming in python.
Stênio G. Gomes (MSc)
is a PhD student, graduated in ecology and environmental analysis at Federal University of Goiás (UFG, 2019), where he also did is MSc (2022). His current interest is to understand how the patterns of ecological interaction can be affected by habitat fragmentation and associated environmental changes. To achieve this, he is using a plant-pollinator interaction networks from diverse biomes. He also spends some time cooking and growing spices and tea leaves.

Poliana P. Menezes
is graduated in Ecology and Environmental Analysis (Federal University of Goiás - UFG, 2023) and got her MSc in Ecology & Evolution in this lab (UFG). Currently she is a tecnician in the lab. She is interested in evaluating the influence of cerrado vegetation structure and the availability of floral resources on bee communities. Her research focuses on the Emas National Park in Goiás, an important conservation area in the Cerrado biome in Brazil.

Patrick Menezes Consorte
Is graduated in ecology and environmental analysis (UFG, 2022) and got his MSc in this lab (2025). He is currently a technician in the lab linked to the internationalization project UFG-Naturalis on Brazilian Bee Shortfalls evaluation. He is interested in understanding the ecology and distribution of native bees, evaluating pollinator limitation and dependency in cocumber plantations. He is also interested in estimating the bee diversity in Brazil biomes and helping organizing the laboratory bee collection.
