My scientific work is focused on the understanding of dynamic processes at the local and regional scales by combining different techniques in the field of structural geology, including magnetic fabrics, geodynamics, isotopic geochemistry, and finite element approximation. My research projects focus on understanding magma rise and batholith inflation with respect to the regional deformation field. These studies were carried out in the Eastern Alps (Austria/Italy), Sierras Pampeanas (Argentina), Cordillera de La Costa (Chile), and Dom Feliciano Belt (Santa Catarina State, Brazil). The last three were also studied in detail to unravel the geotectonic history in the Neoproterozoic, Paleozoic, and Mesozoic on the margin of the Craton of Rio de la Plata.
