Full CV at http://www.sc.eso.org/~cmelo/docs/cv_cmelo_latest.pdf ---- Claudio Melo is an associate astronomer at the European Southern Observatory (ESO). Claudio has a B.Sc. in Physics and a M.Sc. in Astronomy from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, Brazil. He obtained his Ph.D. under the supervision of Prof. Michel Mayor at the Geneva Observatory in 2001 where the studied the multiplicity of the T-Tauri stars. Claudio joined ESO/Chile in 2002 as a science fellow with duties at Paranal Observatory and since 2006 he has been part of the permanent staff of the Organization. He has worked as an astronomer in the scientific operations team of the Paranal Observatory in Chile, as well as at ESO's headquarters in Garching, Germany. In 2013 he was appointed as the Head of the Office for Science in Chile where he remained until April 2018. He is currently the ESO Representative in Chile where he works with the ESO management and a broad spectrum of stakeholders in Chile and in the Member States to identify challenges, needs and solutions necessary for the long-term operations of ESO’s current and future programs in Chile. As Representative, Claudio participates in the management of a portfolio of projects aiming at increasing the added value of science to different stakeholders across society. Scientifically, Claudio has authored 113 refereed papers in international peer-reviewed journals – 19 papers as first- or senior author, 16 as 2nd or 3rd-author, and 78 in collaborative effort - with a total number of citations of 4544 (May 2020, NASA ADS). He is proud to be an active contributor of the current collective effort to find and characterize habitable worlds where life could emerge. His current projects are done in strong collaboration with the Institute for Astrophysics and Space Sciences in Portugal and the Near InfraRed Planet Searcher (NIRPS) consortium of which he was initially PI and now he contributes as an ad-hoc senior member of the Science Team.
