Ricardo Pereira

Dr. Pereira is an evolutionary biologist at the State Museum of Natural History Stuttgart. He leads research on how species form and survive in the face of environmental changes, collaborating extensively with institutions in Germany and Brazil. His team uses advanced genomics to study the diversity of life at the genetic and species levels, providing valuable insights for conservation.
A key focus of Dr. Pereira's work is "Museomics," which leverages historical collections to guide future conservation efforts. By analyzing time series data from monitoring and natural history collections, his research helps us understand the evolutionary processes that drive changes in biodiversity. This knowledge is crucial for predicting how species will adapt and survive future environmental changes, improving our conservation strategies.
