About us

The Postgraduate Program in Tropical Biodiversity (PPGBIO) has Ecology as its sole area of focus, consisting of three basic lines of research. These three lines of research form a continuum of scientific research topics, with the promotion of conservation and the sustainable use of tropical biodiversity in general, and Amazonian biodiversity in particular, as the main objective. Ecology is the science that integrates these three lines of research and serves as a conceptual reference for the development of interactions with other disciplines from the biological, exact and natural, and human sciences.
