Dr. Renata M. Pirani (she/her)
Herpetologist, Evolutionary Biologist, current working with Macroevolution patterns, Nature Explorer, and an outdoor sports person.
I am an evolutionary biologist interested in how historical and evolutionary processes generated the high Neotropical biodiversity of amphibians and reptiles (species and population level). I am currently a President’s Postdoctoral Fellow at University of California Los Angeles (UCLA).
