I was visiting scholar for one year at the Centre of Philosophy of the University of Lisbon. I work mainly in the areas of Philosophy of Logic, Metaphysics, and Philosophy of Science and Technology. I participate in two postgraduate programs in Philosophy: PPGFIL (master and doctorate), and PIDFIL (doctorate), and also in the program on Development and Environment PRODEMA (master).
