Clarisse Palma da Silva
Bachelor's at Biological Sciences from Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (2000), master's at Genetics and Molecular Biology from Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (2003) and PhD at Genetics and Molecular Biology from Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (2008). Post-doc at Kew Royal Botanic Gardens and UFRJ. I am a Professor at UNICAMP, Department of Plant Biology. I am Head of the Evolutionary Ecology and Genomics Laboratory. I am mainly interested in studing Evolutionary Biology of Neotropical Plants. My main research projects are focus on molecular ecology, evolutionary biology, conservation genetics, population genetics and genomics, evolutionary genomics and transcriptomics; phylogeography and reproductive biology.

Screening for molecules controlling essential biological processes in insects through gene silencing (RNAi), genomic editing (CRISPR-Cas9) and global gene expression analysis (RNA-seq) techniques aiming at the development of sustainable biotechnological solutions to control agricultural pests.

André Victor Lucci Freitas
Labbor is located in the Animal Biology Department (Departamento de Biologia Animal) at Unicamp, Campinas, SãoPaulo. The lab focuses its research in studies on natural history, ecology and systematics of Neotropical lepidoptera. Current lines of research include butterfly taxonomy and phylogeny, natural history, adult and immature morphology, community ecology, and conservation.
