Juan Pablo Quimbayo Agreda

I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Center for Marine Biology, University of São Paulo - Brazil. My current project focus is to define what ecological, biogeographical and anthropogenic drivers influence reef fish assemblages, and how these can vary over time. ​My academic background includes expertise in animal behavior, community ecology, marine macroecology, conservation, biogeography, functional ecology, population communities, statistical techniques, and the management of large databases using R. I have vast fieldwork experience, having coordinated and organized dozens expeditions for large projects, such as SISBIOTA-Mar and PELD. During the execution of these projects, I worked with the logistics of the expeditions, large databases, data collection on interactions among species, and conservation of reef communities. I am also very familiar to teamwork, research supervising, and spending long periods of time in remote locations under difficult living conditions​.
