I completed my first postdoctoral research in 2022 at the University of Barcelona, Spain, with funding from the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation and the BBVA Foundation through the Leonardo Grant for Researchers and Cultural Creators. My research focused on the impact of oil companies on mammal and bird fauna in the Amazon. The study examined the effects of heavy metals, noise pollution, and hunting associated with wildlife consuming contaminated water near oil extraction sites.
