I do research on Theoretical Solid State Physics, specially in two-dimensional materials, like graphene.

I am assistant professor at Universidade do Minho and Cooperation Associate (CoAs) of the Theory of Quantum Nanostructures (TQN) group, International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL)

I am author of several publications in peer-reviewed international scientific journals, including a paper in Science. I wrote the books 'Introdução à Física Contemporânea' (2010) and 'Física XXI' (2020).
