Akemi Tanaka
Graduanda em Ciências Biológicas - Bacharelado
Akemi é aluna da graduação do bacharelado em ciências biológicas, ela faz parte do Ornitolab há pelo menos 03 anos, já foi até pros EUA (2017) representar o Ornitolab! lá ela prendeu a trabalhar com dados moleculares, de nova geração e isso foi muito importante pra aumentar o conhecimento do laboratório em estudos moleculares. Atualmente ela está desenvolvendo seu projeto de monografia com aves alopátricas das florestas secas neotropicais.
Lucas Carvalho
Graduando em Ciências Biológicas - Bacharelado
Lucas está na graduação em Ciências Biológicas - Bacharelado, atualmente está fazendo parte do Ornitolab, onde além de participar das nossas atividades, vêm construindo seu projeto de Monografia que será relacionado com filogeografia de aves do gênero Pseudoseisura, gênero esse, que possui 04 espécies distribuídas ao longo da região Neotropical. Além disso, ele também tira umas fotos de aves muito bacanas!
