In a nutshell

JunqueiraLab is part of the Laboratory of Evolutionary Biology and Genomics, located in the Department of Genetics at the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro.

Collaboration is a cornerstone of our lab’s philosophy. We welcome researchers and students from various disciplines, integrating molecular biology, bioinformatics, and evolution to deepen our understanding of biodiversity and the forces shaping its continual transformation.

Whether you’re a student, researcher, or simply fascinated by the story encoded in the DNA of all living organisms, we invite you to explore our work and join us in uncovering the evolutionary connections that unite life on Earth.
