Physics-Informed Machine Learning
and Complex Networks for
Disaster Risk Reduction

Welcome! That is my website. You can find here information about my papers, projects, and research team.

I'm Leonardo Santos. I'm a Physicist (Federal University of Bahia, Brazil, 2005-2008), and I have a Ph.D. in Applied Computing (Brazilian National Institute of Space Research - INPE, Brazil, 2011-2014). I have a permanent position as a researcher at the Brazilian National Center for Monitoring and Early Warning of Natural Disasters (CEMADEN). In 2019 and 2020, I was at the Humboldt University of Berlin as a visiting researcher. I am a Professor in the Post-grad Program on Applied Computing at INPE and the Post-grad Program on Computer Science at UNIFESP. I am one of the founders of the research group "Mathematics - Climate, Environment, and Sustainability" in the Brazilian Applied Mathematics Society (SBMAC), and I led the group from 2016 to 2022. Currently, I hold a productivity grant from CNPq and projects funded by CNPq and FAPESP.

Are you interested in collaborating with my group? You will be very welcome! We have opportunities for learning, data sharing, co-authorship, and supervision (undergraduate and postgraduate work). Get in touch: santoslbl@gmail.com
