OUR TEAM
Larissa Oliveira Gonçalves
Is a biologist, holding a Master's and a Doctorate degree in Ecology from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul in Brazil. She is a researcher in the USP Sustainability program, affiliated with the Wildlife Ecology, Management and Conservation Lab at the University of São Paulo. She collaborates with the Center for Road and Railway Ecology (NERF), the Brazilian Network of Transportation Ecology Specialists (REET/Brasil), and the Latin America and Caribbean Transport Working Group from IUCN (LACTWG). She has experience in environmental project management and planning measures to mitigate the impacts of road projects on wildlife. She also contributes to the development of methodological and analytical protocols supporting public policies.
Is a biologist, holding a Master's and a Doctorate degree in Ecology from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) in Brazil. She has been working as a researcher at the Center for Road and Railway Ecology (NERF), since its establishment in 2011. She is a member of the Brazilian Network of Transportation Ecology Specialists (REET/Brasil), and has been part of the Steering Committee of the Latin America and Caribbean Working Group from IUCN (LACTWG) since its inception. Her research primarily focuses on the impacts of linear infrastructures on wildlife, landscape ecology, enhancement of environmental impact assessments, biodiversity conservation, and the application of this knowledge in education and public policies.
Bibiana Terra Dasoler
Is a biologist, holding a master's degree in Ecology from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul in Brazil, and currently pursuing a Ph.D. degree in Ecology at the same institution. Since 2017, she has been collaborating with the Road and Railway Ecology Center (NERF), and since 2019, she has been associated with the Transport Ecology Specialist Network (REET/Brazil). Her main interests revolve around applied ecology, focusing on topics such as assessing and planning to mitigate the impacts of linear infrastructures, biodiversity conservation, and environmental education.
Ingridi Camboim Franceschi
Is a Partner/Director of PRECISA, holding a degree in Biology, and a Master's in Ecology. She is currently pursuing her Ph.D. in Ecology at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS). She has been collaborating with the Center for Road and Railway Ecology (NERF) since 2018, ad is also part of the Brazilian Network of Transportation Ecology Specialists (REET/Brasil) since 2019. Her research focuses on the impacts of anthropogenic infrastructures on wildlife, aiming to enhance monitoring, assessment, and mitigation efforts. She is interested in understanding these impacts on wildlife populations and biodiversity conservation. Her expertise includes scientific outreach, management, and execution of environmental projects, as well as the co-production dynamics of documents for decision-making processes.
