Hello! My name is Erick. I come from Brazil and I study interesting things.

My main interest is in Mathematical Modelling of pretty much anything. In the last couple of years, I have worked with Evolutionary Game Theory, Innovation Theory, a bit of modelling for Sports Science. I have done mostly agent-based modelling in the recent past; my Ph.D., though, will probably differ from that. I welcome the challenge and think it will be a great opportunity to learn new tricks.

My current work deals with the FtsZ protein and its effects on membrane remodelling in bacteria.

You can read a short auto-biography here.
