Welcome to Manolo Perez website. My main research interests lie in the diversification of Neotropical taxa. Using climatic, spatial, computational and genetic tools, my aim is to study demographic events and phylogenetic relationships on different taxa. I am currently studying the diversification of fish species from the Osteoglossiformes order that occur in three different continents, using phylogenetic, biogeographic and machine learning methods. During my PhD my studies focused on phylogeography of species associated to dry environments. I also worked with diversification mechanisms on other plant taxa, birds and arthropods in the Neotropics.
I am a PhD on Evolutive Genetics and Molecular Biology at Federal University of Sao Carlos (UFSCar)-Brazil. Currently, I am a Research Fellow at Imperial College London. Before that, I was based at the Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle in Paris and at the Fish Cytogenetic Lab at UFSCar. I have also visited the Sanmartín Lab located in the Real Jardín Botánico de Madrid and the Faircloth Lab at Louisiana State University. In my PhD I was advised by Evandro Marsola de Moraes and also spent a few months in Bryan Carstens' Lab at Ohio State University.
