Luiz Guerreiro Lopes completed his PhD in Mathematics (Specialty: Numerical Computing and Analysis) in 2008 at the University of Madeira. He holds a Master's degree in Computer Science from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (II/UFRGS), a BSc (Hons) in Mathematics from the Federal University of Rio Grande (FURG), and a Postgraduate Diploma (PGDip) in Water Resources and Environmental Sanitation from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (IPH/UFRGS). He conducted postdoctoral research in Hydrometeorology (Radar Hydrometeorology) at the University of São Paulo (IAG/USP) and in Climate and Environment (Spatial Hydrology) at the State University of Amazonas (PPG-CLIAMB/UEA). He has supervised two PhD theses in Mathematics, one in the specialty of Numerical Computing and Analysis, and the other in Probability and Statistics, as well as nine master's dissertations in Informatics Engineering, Mathematics, and Civil Engineering. Currently, he supervises two PhD theses in Informatics Engineering in the specialty of Artificial Intelligence and co-supervises one PhD thesis in Electrotechnical Engineering, in addition to a master's dissertation in Informatics Engineering. His research focuses on Informatics Engineering, with an emphasis on Computational Intelligence and HPC, as well as on Applied and Computational Mathematics. He also works in the field of Natural Sciences, particularly in Earth and Environmental Sciences.
